Skills and Learning - Adult Community Education

Skills and Learning - Adult Community Education logo

We are Skills and Learning, the joint adult education provider for BCP and Dorset Councils.

For over 25 years, we have been providing adult education provision to Dorset. We are a customer focused organisation and are working with local communities, partner organisations and employers to provide opportunities to change people's lives for the better through learning. Throughout the years, our team of organising staff and teaching & learning staff has grown to enable us to offer more subjects and courses to Dorset's adults and young people.

We now work across over 20 subject areas and provide adult education to thousands of residents in Dorset each year through our vocational courses, learning for leisure and employability programmes.
