ONE OF the borough's largest providers of e-learning and internet access is set to take part in a government scheme.

Next Life has been authorised to work in conjunction with Learndirect, the adult learning scheme.

Courses are intended to be free, easily accessible and cater for all levels of ability.

"Next Life offers a unique combination of virtual learning in a friendly, approachable environment where learners will receive encouragement, support and motivation from the moment they enrol with us," said company managing director John McVeigh.

"Our experienced staff will spend time with each newly enrolled learner to identify their training objectives, suggest suitable courses and put together individual learning programmes.

"We believe that e-learning will also revolutionise the way businesses enhance their skill base. Learndirect is ideal for small businesses as there are no cost implications, fixed classes or set timescales."

Anyone interested in the courses at Windsor Street, Uxbridge should call 01895 812020.
