Northampton College
Has the COVID-19 pandemic changed the way you think about work? Has it prompted you to think that maybe now is the time to make a change in your career? Northampton College is giving workers across the county the
chance to update their skills and equip them with the knowledge they need to pursue alternative pathways and explore new opportunities. A range of free maths, English and IT courses, specifi cally designed for adults already in work, will allow people to upskill and make them- selves better placed to apply for alternative roles. Principal of Northampton College, Pat Brennan-Barrett, said: “T e disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has, for many people, put life on hold. But that temporary pause, that shift away from previous day-to-day life, has also provided the perfect opportunity to take stock and to think about the kind of life you want to lead going forward. “By taking some time to focus on what lessons you can learn from
lockdown, you can begin to make positive changes to both your per- sonal life and your career to help you thrive, not only now but in the future too, whatever that may look like. “If lockdown has made you realise that you want to do something
that feels more worthwhile or you’re uncertain how secure your job is, there’s never been a better time to upskill. “Our maths and English courses are designed to help you boost your
confi dence and open up a whole new world of opportunity. Courses range from basic skills, such as simple sums and understanding gram- mar, to nationally recognised GCSE qualifi cations. “We also off er a range of IT courses for adults anyone looking to
upskill in those areas, meaning you can stay up to date with technology that’s changing the way the modern workplace functions.” Adult courses at Northampton College are delivered by supportive,
experienced tutors in a friendly, COVID-secure environment. Students will benefi t from increased confi dence and will gain the
