Course fees and remission
Most of our Lancashire Adult Learning courses are short online courses that are FREE for residents in Lancashire.

Eligible state benefits include:
- Jobseeker’s Allowance
- Employment and Support Allowance
- Universal Credit
- Another state benefit (conditions apply)
Other fee waiver criteria may apply, including:
- Studying for your first full Level 1 or 2 qualification on an eligible course
- Studying for your first full Level 3 qualification on an eligible course (from April 2021)
- Those in employment with a gross annual income of less than £17,004
For more information on course fees including fee waivers please contact our Student Services team on 01282 440 209.
Eligible learners can attend a maximum of two fee remitted courses each year and must show proof of their benefits at enrolment. If you need help or would like to ask us a question, use our LiveChat feature or contact us.
