Reskill, Retrain and Reinvent Yourself

Our adult courses can help you improve your career prospects or even start your own business, whilst ensuring you have a clear line of sight to get to where you want to be. 

Oldham College is a place where students of all ages can nurture passions, expand their horizons and achieve their best in all that they do.

prospectus_description
Businesses are identifying the need for emerging industry or job-specific technical skills - and you can't afford to get left behind. We believe that age has nothing to do with learning. It's no longer the case that people can leave education at 18 and never need to reskill again - you need to continue learning throughout your working life in order to succeed.
