Here at LLC, we understand that the thought of the financial stress of education can be daunting. Which is why we do everything that we can to help relieve those stresses. From fully funded courses to help with childcare costs, we will always do the best we can to support you in getting back into learning. Whether that be classroom-based courses or online lessons.
Please see the different types of funding available for learning below
Advanced Learning Loans
You may qualify for an Advanced Learning Loan to help with the cost of your programme fees. Most learners aged 19 and over, studying at Level 3 to Level 6, will qualify for these loans from the UK government.
