Cafe training case studyLearning the easy way - at your pace
You can study our online courses whenever you want and at your own pace. The courses are available on mobile, tablets or laptops so you can even carry on learning at work or on the move. And don't worry - we provide plenty of support to help you achieve the pass you need.
We've partnered with one of the UK's largest qualification bodies, Highfield Qualifications, to ensure that your exam happen as smoothly as possible. You can take your exams on a laptop with a webcam - even at home!. (We also have physical test centres if that is your preference).
Businesses - use our tools to manage your learning
Many businesses are concerned that training is expensive and takes people out of work. Online training, delivered via a computer or mobile phone, reduces the expense while avoiding the need to send staff offsite for days of training. Instead a simple online learning module can be delivered at the end of the day or during breaks.
The Digital College offers business customers a self-service portal where they can register staff, track their progress and view their enrolment information.
Whether you need food safety or licencing courses - we have the e-learning ready for you.
