Preston College Adult Course Guide 2026

WELCOME

NEW YEAR. NEW SKILLS. NEW OPPORTUNITIES.

At Preston College, we believe that education is the key to making meaningful change, in your career, your confidence, and your future. As we step into 2026, there’s no better time to invest in yourself and discover the opportunities that new skills can bring. Whether you’re launching a new career, enhancing your current role, or learning something new, we’re here to support you every step of the way. We understand that returning to education as an adult comes with challenges, balancing study with work, family, and everyday life, which is why our courses are designed to fit around your commitments. With the cost of living still impacting households, we also recognise that finances can feel like a barrier. From government funding and advanced learner loans to employer sponsorship and bursaries, our team is here to guide you through your options and help make education affordable and accessible. The world of work is changing rapidly, with technology, AI, sustainability, and the green economy shaping the careers of the future.

Our curriculum is designed to keep pace with these changes, equipping you with the skills employers are looking for in 2026 and beyond. Inside this guide, you’ll find courses built to help you grow, progress, and succeed. All are underpinned by our Five As of Ambition framework, which inspires positive behaviours, personal responsibility, and lifelong growth. Make 2026 your year to take that next step and let education unlock the door to your future.

We look forward to welcoming you.
