MATHS Courses

Our Functional Skills qualifications are intended for anyone wishing to develop their maths skills, and are ideal for learners wishing to develop practical, transferable skills in maths in order to work confidently, effectively, and independently in life. Our Functional Skills maths qualifications focus on preparing learners to demonstrate both mathematical skills at the appropriate level and the ability to apply mathematical thinking effectively to solve problems successfully in the workplace and in other. These qualifications enable learners to gain confidence in using mathematics, provide a foundation for progression into employment or further technical education and develop skills for everyday life, where the skills gained can be applied to solve mathematical problems confidently, and to apply this knowledge and these skills in familiar situations. We offer these qualifications from entry level 2 to Level 2. You can work through the online learning at your own pace, with tutors on hand to support you every step of the way. You will have access to high-quality, individualized learning materials, online resources, and face to face workshops throughout your course.
