ACL Essex Festival of Learning to showcase new September courses

From today, residents can attend ACL Essex centres for free taster workshops. They will also be able to speak to teams about their learning aspirations and enrol on a range of courses.

Tutors from various subjects will be on hand to deliver the tasters. Available workshops include maths, English, digital and Science qualifications. There are also sessions in psychology, hair and beauty, mental health and wellbeing, and much more.

Teams will be in attendance to support residents to learn new skills, provide advice on next steps in life and work, and to help residents enrol on courses starting this September.

Lisa Jarentowski, ACL Essex Principal, said:

There is so much to discover at ACL Essex’s free taster workshops during the Festival of Learning: Have A Go Week. As children head back to school in September, why not take some time for yourself and try learning something new for free?

These events offer the chance to sample courses, helping you choose which would be right for you. Book your taster today and have a go at something new to boost your employment prospects, get back into education, do something you have always wanted to do, or simply take up a new hobby.

The Festival of Learning: Have A Go taster sessions will be on offer from Wednesday 6 September to Thursday 14 September at various ACL Essex centres.  

Find your local ACL Essex event and book your taster.
