LSC

The Learning and Skills Council (LSC) is the main government funder of Adult and Community Learning (now known as Adult Safeguarded Learning) in West Sussex, and distributes its funding through a number of approved local providers (WSCC Adult & Community Learning Service, Northbrook College, Central Sussex College, Chichester College). Other providers deliver a range of programmes funded through a variety of sources.

If you are advising learners on the cost of courses, contact the provider because they each have their own fees policies. Free courses, discounts or bursaries may be available to students, depending on their personal circumstances.
