Inspire have launched our brand new Adult Learning Course Guide, with hundreds of free and low-cost courses for adults to study across Nottinghamshire to kickstart 2025!

You’ll have probably spotted our mini-guide delivered through your letterbox, which contains details of courses in your local area. 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.

Try a tasty cupcake decorating class, brush up on your Spanish, rediscover a love of cooking, become an expert bookkeeper, unleash your inner painter, master an Excel spreadsheet, or get fit: depending on your circumstances, many courses will be free or low-cost, with accredited courses fully funded for those in receipt of certain benefits, so you can try as many as you like.

If you’re a bit unsure and want to take that initial step back into the world of work, our free ReNew courses at Newark Buttermarket can help you gain confidence and skills to help you back into employment. With our friendly, knowledgeable tutors, you’ll enjoy a fun, friendly, high-quality learning experience. 

Some of our courses will be taking place at our brand new venue at High Pavement House in Sutton in Ashfield – if you get the chance, be sure to drop in and say hi!

All our courses can be booked online, or through Ask Inspire. Keep an eye on our website, as we’ll be adding new courses throughout the year. Can't see the course you're looking for? Keep checking back on this page, and sign up for our emails to be notified when more courses are added!
