The Scottish Government would like everyone to be able to carry on learning right throughout their life - whether it's to get a job, improve existing skills or just to find out about something because it's interesting. At learndirect scotland we help to do this by showing people, like you, how, where and when you can learn in the way that suits you best.

We encourage people from disadvantaged backgrounds or those who, for whatever reason, have lost their confidence in education to find a way back into learning. We can help you develop your knowledge and abilities or extend your work-related skills.

We also help small businesses who may be pushed for time, to find the right training and development opportunities for their staff. Companies with well-skilled and trained staff have a much better chance of succeeding in business.

Or maybe you just want to learn something because you've always wanted to - perhaps it could become a new hobby.

Whatever you want to learn - we can help.
