Do you feel you could be more effective in your everyday life? Perhaps you’d like to learn how to write a CV, start a side hustle and save money?
Our online, self-paced course will teach you a range of life skills, from managing your time effectively and negotiating the best deals to learning how to buy a house or car.
How does the course work?
The course is online, can be started at any time and is self-paced so you can fit it around existing commitments. The course material is delivered via your online account on our website.
Each week consists of a video to watch, followed by a practical (but theoretical!) task to help you develop your everyday life skills. Together, the video and task should take an hour to complete.
Our courses are tailored to young people, with lots of practical tips and step-by-step real-life challenges.
We offer the option of 3, 6 and 12 month courses, also covering money management, business and investing skills.
