We offer students the opportunity for further learning, which could include improving literacy or digital skills, learning about customer service or the benefits of volunteering and community engagement. All out courses help you develop your skills, confidence and employability.

These include:

  • English (ESOL) for Volunteering and Community Action – for those who have finished studying ESOL with us (so are at Entry 3/B1 level) and are interested in volunteering or being more involved with the community.
  • ESOL for working in the Care Sector – a new course specifically for those interested in working in the care sector in the UK.
  • Starting ESOL – aimed at those with very low level English.
  • Welcome Host – a Level 2 Customer Service skills course accredited by Tourism South East – starting on October 8th 2025 – Contact us for details.
  • Singing for Wellbeing – a partnership with the Welsh National Opera and the University of Southampton.
  • English Conversation – a fun and engaging group that meet during the week at Southampton Central Library to practice conversations in English.
  • IT drop in – if you need to improve your digital skills or access online learning or forms, then our tutor Jo is at the Central Library on a Wednesday morning during term time, and you can visit her there – no need to book.

Dates for the 2025-26 academic year will be shared when these courses have been confirmed.
