To kick off this exciting initiative, join us at our Free Courses launch event on Monday, 19 August, at the Net Zero Skills Hub, Abingdon & Witney College, Wootton Road, Abingdon, OX14 1GG, from 9:30am to 11:00am.

Our vision, 'Be You Be Extraordinary,' is at the heart of this initiative, enhancing employability and supporting a sustainable future for our community."
This latest funding announcement builds on previous support from West Oxfordshire District Council, which has already enabled the college to provide critical training in green skills, care, and hospitality. With a goal to equip at least 130 residents with green skills and another 100 individuals with certificates in care and hospitality, Abingdon & Witney College is driving forward the next generation of skilled professionals.
