This Time It's for You! Introducing Our New Courses for Adults Guide 2026/27  

Whatever your goals, ambitions or interests, there’s never been a better time to invest in yourself and unlock new opportunities through adult learning. 

We are excited to launch our new Courses for Adults Guide 2026/27, which reflects the variety of flexible, part-time courses available at Chichester College.  Whatever your goals, our range of adult courses is designed to help you take the next step.  

This time it’s for you 

Life can be busy, and sometimes personal ambitions are the first thing to be put on hold. Between work, family commitments and day-to-day responsibilities, finding time for yourself can be a challenge.  

Whether you want to progress your career, retrain for a new industry, build your confidence, or explore a new interest, investing in yourself can improve your confidence, wellbeing, employability, and future opportunities. Learning isn’t just for school leavers; it’s for everyone, at every stage of life.  

Learning to fit around your life 

Returning to education may feel difficult alongside existing commitments, which is why our adult courses are designed with flexibility in mind. With a range of part-time, evening and online options available, it’s easier than ever to fit learning around your lifestyle and responsibilities.  

For many adults, returning to learning after a break can feel daunting. That’s why our experienced tutors and dedicated support teams are here to help throughout your journey.  

Chichester College also offers a supportive learning environment close to home, helping adult learners build skills, confidence and qualifications in a welcoming, local and convenient setting. 

Ofsted Outstanding learning  

Our commitment to delivering high-quality teaching and support was recognised in our 2025 Ofsted inspection, where our adult learning provision was judged Outstanding.  

Ofsted highlighted the positive impact of our provision, stating:  
“The education and training that adult learners receive has a profound impact on their personal and professional development.”

Every year, adults join us to pursue new careers, achieve personal goals, gain qualifications or try something new.
