<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Aptos,sans-serif">Our 12-week online learning programmes with Century Tech use artificial intelligence (AI) to improve your gaps in knowledge, and the best news is that you can work your way through the courses at your own pace. </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Aptos,sans-serif">You will be given an online learning account, where you will take a short diagnostic check of current knowledge. It is not a test! Based on this check, the AI will set a bespoke pathway of study, ensuring the things you are learning are personal to you. You will complete a series of learning activities along with mini knowledge checks along the way. </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:Aptos,sans-serif">You will also have access to support from the Adult Education team and one of our friendly tutors. Initially you will be invited to a tutor-led session over Zoom to show you how it works and give some guidance. Following this you will be given access to Century Tech, and you will be free to complete the course. We also offer an optional follow up session with a tutor for further support and guidance. Should you need to, you can also contact the team at any point during the course.</span></span></p>
