Nutrocker's Free Online Courses
....The BBC also offers a range of online-based courses that you can work through at your own pace...Have a look at what's on offer and see if there's anything that takes your fancy.....
However this link to the BBC adult education site takes you to a page which says it has not been updated since October 2010, but a bit more clicking and you discover that the BBC has a policy to keep pages available while they can still be useful and as long as the information is not out of date and therefore might be dangerous ...Do not fear that cuts which have affected the BBC too have put paid too their activities in education..there appears to be a newer site which I will explore later......
I am not to be honest too sure how many of these courses are officially recognised and have certificates, but in the past I have come across some that have the facility to print off a certificate ..which if not much help otherwise does make you feel good !!! Even if the courses are more about learning the basics in skills that you did not have before such as IT, Maths and English ..it may turn out to be very beneficial , since free training is now far more rationed than it was....
