The Learning Institute

I have a degree!! I’m 45 years old and I did it. Yay me!
You can do more than you think you can. Keep pushing even when you think you’re done. It will all be worth it in the end!
I have learnt so much over the last three years. I am a different person in many respects, and have gained so much confidence too!
It empowers, enlightens and excites your learning.
Where will you be in five years’ time? With this course, who knows – you could be on the way to somewhere much more exciting than where you are at the moment.

About Us

The Learning Institute provides opportunities for individuals and communities through high quality education, training and research programmes that challenge personal barriers and promote social inclusion.

Based in the South West of England, we deliver opportunities at venues in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset, South Gloucestershire, Bristol and London. We offer a range of undergraduate and masters degree courses, initial teacher training, apprenticeships and CPD programmes. Our courses are run locally, and are designed to fit around your other commitments.

At The Learning Institute we treat all learners as individuals. We provide a nurturing environment with dedicated tutors and support for our students, trainees and apprentices. If you are already working in the education or health sectors and want to further your career prospects, if you are returning to education, or if you are still planning your future, we may have a programme that suits you.

We believe learning should be informed by research, guided by ethics and committed to communities. It should offer the freedom to make empowering choices, remove barriers to allow the freedom to make those choices and create the desire and expectation that the choices made will lead to positive change.
