There’s No Such Thing As A Free Course!

It is possible to access free courses in Information Technology that are sponsored by the government but there tends to be a down side. The first one being that you normally have to commit to doing a multi-unit qualification which can take up to twelve months to complete. The second one is that since the Government has largely withdrawn Train 2 Gain funding the only FREE courses that are available are Apprenticeships. In terms of an iT qualification based around the Microsoft Office products this is a huge undertaking since the Apprenticeship means doing about ten different units and the Key Skills and the ERR etc: So you see even though these courses are being marketed as free they are not really free. It’s true there may not be any up front course fees but we at Home Study understand that time is money. The more you or your staff have to spend time with a visiting trainer, or have to attend a course out of the work place the more expensive that FREE course is now beginning to be for you.
