I am delighted to introduce our new range of courses from September. We’ve got something for everybody - adults, young people, families, businesses and community organisations.There are courses here which will help you keep your skills up to date, improve them to gain employment, move on at work, work in new areas or support self-employment. You will be able to move on to further study and gain confidence for whatever you go on to do next.

We also believe in the benefits gained from the buzz of learning something new or doing something you have never done before. We like to trial new courses and this year you could try Access to Higher Education in Science or Absolute Beginners Guide to Tablets.

There are also important new ways to fund Level 3 courses, including our successful Access courses which could take you to university (see page 6).

Adult Education is also keen to let everyone know that we are developing opportunities for apprenticeships – to find out more or get advice for your business please see page 10 or contact us on 0300 1231 117.

We look forward to hearing from you and getting started.

The Skills Funding Agency has allocated some funding to provide financial assistance to these learners. Please ring 0300 1231 117 or email iag@cornwall-acl.ac.uk for information and advice on how to apply for this support.

Paying by instalments If you would prefer to spread the cost you may wish to take the opportunity to pay by instalments. This option is available if your course fee is £60.00 or over.

Your costs will be divided equally into monthly instalments (the final instalment must be paid before the end of your course). The first instalment is due at the point of enrolment which can be paid by cash, cheque, debit or credit card. The easiest way to pay the remaining instalments is by setting up a standing order when you enrol. If you prefer to pay in person you can make your payments at your local centre.

What about examination fees?All examination and registration fees are included in the course fees quoted unless otherwise stated.

Course materialsFor some courses an initial cost for materials is built into the fee to get you started, but you will need to provide your own books, stationery and any additional materials. Details of the materials you will need and a breakdown of what is already included in the course fee can be found on the course information sheet. Please log on to www.cornwall.gov.uk/adultlearning and click on Coursefinder to find the relevant course information sheet, or ring 0300 1231 117 to request a copy.

RefundsIf a class does not start or closes due to insufficient enrolments a full refund of course fees will be made.

If a learner cancels their place on a course more than 5 working days prior to the course start, they will be given a full refund less £20 administration fee. If a learner cancels their place on a course within 5 working days of the course start, there will be no refund.

Refunds for other reasons are not generally given, except in exceptional circumstances such as bereavement or illness supported by a Doctor’s certificate. If a course has already started the refund will be calculated on a pro rata basis and will be subject to an administration charge of £20.

Courses, changes and cancellationsCourses may be cancelled, or changed, if enrolments are too low or for other reasons. Course details and venues may be changed if necessary.

Equal opportunitiesThe Cornwall Adult Education Service welcomes learners from all backgrounds and is committed to providing the best possible learning opportunities for all our learners. It is our responsibility to ensure that no-one is treated unfairly due to their race, gender, ethnicity, learning or physical disability, religion, marital status, sexuality or age. We want all learners to achieve their full potential and to enjoy the provision we offer in a supportive environment.

It is important to us that all our learners are placed on the right course and have the support needed to get the most from their learning.

Please let us know if you have a physical disability or learning difficulty when you enrol. We will make every effort to respond flexibly to your individual needs. We may be able to provide learning support, specialist resources and equipment to support you on your course. Any information provided will only be used to support you in your learning.

Help with fees and chargesWe know that for some people being able to take part in adult education is only possible if they receive assistance towards the costs of tuition, exam fees, travel, books, materials or childcare.

24+ Advanced Learning LoanHave you heard about the 24+ Advanced Learning Loan?If you are aged 24 or over and want to study A levels, an Access to Higher Education Diploma, or a level 3 or 4 Certificate or Diploma, you will need to pay your college or training organisation for the cost of your course.

A new loan scheme has been introduced by the government to help learners. The 24+ Advanced Learning Loan is easy to apply for, doesn’t take your household income into account and doesn’t involve a credit check.

Here are some of the key facts about the loan:

Repayments are linked to what you earn and not how much you borrowed.

You only have to start making repayments when you’ve finished your course and you’re earning over £21,000 a year (which is £404 a week or £1,750 a month). Until then you don’t need to pay back anything, but you can make voluntary repayments at any time.

You pay 9% of the money you earn over £21,000, before tax. For example, if you earn £22,000 a year, your monthly repayment will be £7 a month; and if you earn £35,000 a year, it will be £105 per month.

Interest is charged on a sliding scale between the Retail Price Index (RPI) and RPI +3%, depending on how much you earn.

For further information, call 0300 1231 117 or visit nationalcareersservice.direct.gov.uk/advancedlearningloans
