Summer adult education courses are moving online

Councillor Alex Dale, Cabinet Member for Children and Young People, said: “Our adult community education service is committed to providing quality learning for Derbyshire residents for skills, leisure and fun.”
“Staff have been working hard to keep our service running during the current coronavirus crisis and provide opportunities for residents despite the barriers we all face.”
“Through online learning our learners have access to a range of courses and a high quality and safe learning experience during this period of uncertainty.”
“If you’re looking to pick up a new hobby or learn a new skill while spending more time at home this summer, we have something for you. Spaces on our courses are limited so make sure you sign up soon to guarantee a place.”
Due to the current coronavirus crisis, adult education community centres are unable to open. Derbyshire County Council be issuing further guidance on when facilities will reopen once it is safe to do so in line with government guidance.
