How much do the courses cost?
The cost of the course can be found alongside the
course details in the Courses For Adults Brochure and on this
website.
The majority of courses in the 2008-2009
programme last for 20 weeks, although there are shorter courses and
one day workshops and there will be a new summer programme
available from April 2009. It is hoped that the variety in
the length of courses will provide greater choice and keep costs
down.
The standard cost of a 2 hour a day, 1 day a
week course that runs for 10 weeks remains exactly the
same as last year £48.
The only change to the payment of course fees is that if the
course is longer than 10 weeks, to safeguard your place and the
sustainability of the course, you will be required to pay for
2 Terms in advance. For instance, if the course you wish to
attend is advertised as 2 hours per session for 20
weeks, then the standard fee payable would be £96.
Do you qualify for a reduced fee?
Reductions are available on a majority of courses, see if you
qualify for a waiver.
What about an ILA?
Individual Learning Accounts (ILAs) can be used to cover part if
not all of the cost of your course. To find out if you
qualify for an ILA, please visit the ILA Wales website.

- ECDL

ILAs may be accepted on other courses, but would be subject to
approval from ILA Wales.
