Develop your skills and pick up new hobbies this September, with inspiring courses in Ashfield

Just in time for the new academic year, Inspire have launched our brand new Adult Learning Course Guide, with hundreds of free and low-cost courses for adults to study in Ashfield, across Nottinghamshire and online.

You’ll have probably spotted our mini-guide delivered through your letterbox, which contains details of courses in your local area – they’re hard to miss, as they’re bright pink! But if you’d like to travel further afield, or just want to see what else we offer, drop into your local library to pick up a full guide, or view all our courses online.

Whether you want to progress your career with a recognised qualification or are just looking to have fun and pick up a new hobby, Inspire’s adult learning courses are for everyone. There’s a huge range of subjects available – from recognised qualifications in Maths, IT, science and English, to local history, languages, music and arts and crafts.
