Learning Opportunities

Dundee is often referred to as a learning city because it has a large college and two universities in the city.

There are lots of learning opportunities in Dundee to suit all needs. These range from brushing up on everyday skills such as reading, writing, spelling and arithmetic or opportunities that can lead to nationally recognised qualifications.

The Directory on this site will give you information about the training providers in the city, but if you're not sure where to start and would like someone to take you through all the different options available, you can visit the Discover Learning website or call the team on 66 66 65.

The Learn Direct site is also a good resource as its the largest supplier of e learning courses of its kind in the world. It delivers a range of educational training products through three business streams:

  • careers advice offers free independent careers advice over the phone, online and by e-mail
  • skills and qualifications has hundreds of centres with courses to improve your maths, English and IT skills
  • business provides off-the-shelf and bespoke work-based e learning courses.

You can also view the courses at Dundee College or visit the S1 Learning website for more information about courses available in the area.
