Foundation Skills
Foundation Skills are a great option if you want to re-engage with learning and gain the skills and confidence to enter the workforce or go on to study further.
Here, you get to do the fun stuff. Rewrite your education experience and learn through a bunch of hands-on, practical, fun activities.
We will help you discover your strengths, build up your skills, and develop a plan for your next steps. Our ultimate goal is for you to walk away with the confidence in yourself to succeed in further study, work, or other life ambitions.
