Links to support our article on learning new skills from home, which appeared in issue 212 of Computeractive

Written by Ben Tudor, Computeractive

If you fancy a spot of extra learning, our feature should have given you a few ideas. To back that up, here's a few links.

We talked about Learn Direct, the Government's adult learning service, which offers a wide variety of adult education courses. Some courses are free, but others have to be apid for. Regardless, the Learn Direct site is a good place to start.

We also talked about UK Online Centres, which aims to provide everyone in the UK with access to computers - and lots of help and advice on how to use them.

Other sites of interest are the Open University, the BBC's online courses, about.com and the National Extension College. The French language course on About.com mentioned in the article can be found here.
