OU partners with colleges to deliver sector specific functional skills courses
The partnership between The Open University (OU) and three FE colleges has been extended with the launch of sector specific English and maths functional skills.
Supporting the government’s National Retraining Scheme, several courses are now available with contextualised content, specific to the construction; engineering; health; social care and education. The free courses, available on the OU’s free learning platform OpenLearn, will now include examples, quizzes and videos to further improve the practical application of the learning.
