More about our online learning

Staffordshire Community Learning Service is recognised for delivering high-quality adult learning opportunities across Staffordshire. At the last Ofsted Inspection, we were judged as a good provider of Community Learning.

Our high-quality courses are delivered by a selection of community learning providers, including colleges, independent educational providers and inspirational tutors. The tutors are very approachable and are there to support you in your learning and getting to grips with learning online.

We work with our community learning providers to ensure we can maintain our provision for existing and new adult learners aged 19 and above across Staffordshire. This selection of online learning will continue alongside a selection of face-to-face courses, giving all learners the widest possible choice in learning the way you want to.

Online learning has become very popular due to the convenience of being able to learn, gain new skills and knowledge about a subject of interest or even gain a qualification. All at a pace that suits you and from the comfort of your own home, office or anywhere with a stable and reliable internet connection.

Staying safe online

Being able to access learning online is a fantastic way to continue and enjoy learning that cannot be delivered face to face, or to begin learning something new for the first time.

But it is also important to make sure you also remain safe online.

We have created an easy to follow guide to staying safe online here.

Be alert for online scams

Online scams take place when criminals use the internet to try to con people into giving them money or personal information.

Fraudsters are known to make calls claiming to be from well known and official organisations when it’s actually a scam. They may ask you for personal information, want access to your computer and in some cases, ask for your bank details. Don’t be fooled, this could be a fraud.

How to protect yourself from online scams

You should be wary of any unsolicited emails or calls that ask you to provide personal information or ask for access to your computer on devices.

Anyone receiving an email that seems suspicious in any way, should never click on links or attachments and never respond to unsolicited messages that ask for their personal or financial details.

People should also be wary of unsolicited phone calls asking for personal information or offering help with your online services and devices.

Staffordshire Community Learning and our learning providers would only call back a learner/potential new learner following on from a voicemail or email enquiry you have made.

If you receive a communication out of the blue from anyone claiming to be associated with Staffordshire Community Learning or an associated Learning provider and which raises your suspicions.  Then hang up, and call back only on our service phone number which is 01785 278770
