THE DOMINO EFFECT - ANTICIPATE THE SIGNS, BEFORE THE DECLINE

The AIM Group is excited to include all Westcountry Schools Trust Schools in its brand-new FREE campaign #TheDominoEffect. This is aimed to raise awareness of the impact mental health and neurodiversity problems are having on today’s generation all without cost. By gaining an essential understanding of these issues, we can all become better equipped to support individuals and prevent the problem from spiralling out of control.

653 people connected to WeST have already signed-up for these free courses from the Aim Group. Some of the most popular subjects, from the many courses available, have been:

All courses are accessed online within a 6-week window and are completed on a laptop or computer at the learner's home. No Exams are involved, and the courses are following an online platform which you read through and answer questions with a few paragraphs per answer - no essays! All the information needed is provided, and available to you 24/7. Once finished You can do as many further courses as you like. However, you can just do one course at a time. 

 The only criteria the learner must meet to be eligible, is the following.

• Aged 19 or over on or before 31^st August 2021   
• Have lived in the UK/EU for 3+ years    
• Not already on a Government funded course (Apprenticeship for example)    

Each course is completely free, but the learning provider reserves the right to charge a drop out fee in the event a learner enrols but then drops out without providing a reason. 
That said, the college will grant extensions if the learner has a reason as to why they won't be able to complete it within the allocated time. 

Please note: under the college request you may need to attend a short webinar that will need to be attended to ensure we get you successfully enrolled onto the correct course
