Learndirect is a nationally recognised brand for learning and is the largest supplier of elearning courses of its kind in the world. We deliver our unique range of educational training products through three business streams:

Equality and Diversity Action Plan

Learndirect has been developed by Ufi (University for industry) with a remit from government to provide high quality post-16 learning which:

  • Reaches those with few or no skills and qualifications who are unlikely to participate in traditional forms of learning;
  • Equips people with the skills they need for employability, thereby strengthening the skills of the workforce and increasing productivity;
  • Is delivered innovatively through the use of new technologies.

Skills for Life

There are an estimated 17.8 million people in the UK with literacy and numeracy skills below Level 2, equivalent to a A*-C grade at GCSE. The impact on people's everyday lives of a literacy, numeracy or language difficulty can be enormous. Many of these people need to improve their skills to manage everyday tasks, such as helping children with homework, following a recipe, dealing with household accounts or responding to official correspondence.

Literacy and numeracy problems also affect people at work, and hinder not only individuals' progress but business' efficiency and productivity. Ufi works with both individuals and employers to identify and address skills gaps and help both to fulfil their potential.

IT

There are also a large number of IT courses from pre-entry course to full level 2 courses. The pre-entry courses help the learner to understand and use the mouse, keyboard, internet, and basic word processing skills. The full level 2 courses teach the learner software and hardware side of computing.
