Ted Bowes whose wife and brother in law also enrolled on the IT course said “Before joining the course, I could just about turn a PC on. Since joining the course I can now do a number of things. It has broadened my knowledge of computer work and helped me within my roles as a Security officer and a Granddad”

Community-based learning centres play a vital role in providing local facilities for people of all ages. Enrolling 100 students in just six months is a great achievement by the people involved with the Communication Workers Union Learning Centre."

Maureen Beauchamp said I started the Spanish course with my husband Steve 8 weeks ago and we have both found it very interesting and informative. Our teacher Gladys is very good and the facilities at the BT Depot are very good.
Julie Barker & Margaret Eason who enrolled for the digital camera class said As new owners of digital cameras we were delighted when we were able to join the basic course, it was enjoyable, friendly and a practical approach made it easy for everyone involved to share ideas and experiences.
Tracy Taylor said I had not been on a computer before so when I heard about the computer course here I decided to join. Since joining I have gained more confidence. I really enjoyed the course, meeting new people and have learnt a great deal. I feel that the course is run extremely well and the tutors are very friendly and helpful. We have a very good class who are always willing to help each other out and I would strongly recommend this course to anyone interested in starting on computers or just brushing up.
Jackie & David Holdroyd who live in Northallerton said We enjoy classes at the CWU learning centre because it is convenient, the facilities are good , parking is easy and there is a very friendly atmosphere. Tutors on both courses have been knowledgeable, incredibly patient and encouraging.
