FINANCIAL SUPPORT GOVERNMENT FUNDED COURSES

FULL PAYMENT DISCOUNT

If you are interested in studying a Government funded course but feel you would have difficulty meeting the costs, you may be eligible to apply for financial support from the College. Successful applicants may receive help with the cost of fees, equipment and childcare. You do not have to be on benefits to receive financial support. Many successful applicants are working but have a low household income.

The College operates a 5% tuition fee discount on full-time and part-time Further Education courses of longer than 10 weeks duration if the learner pays in full at the time of enrolment (to encourage full payment).

Guidelines and application forms are available online in the Financial Assistance section of www.ccb.ac.uk or from the Student Centres at Pelham Street and City College East Campus. We have tried to make the application process as simple as possible but please be aware you will need to provide us with information and evidence regarding your financial situation in order to demonstrate your eligibility. The funds we have are limited and are offered at the discretion of the College on a first come, first served basis. The deadline for applying for courses starting this September is 4pm on 26th August 2016. Please note that not all courses are eligible for support. If you are planning to study a full cost course you cannot apply for financial support.

Please note that this is for Further Education level programmes (excluding students aged 19+ who wish to study and already hold a Level 3 qualification and students aged 24 and over studying at Level 3 and above whether funded by a student loan or otherwise) and Home/ EU students only paying their own fees. Full cost course, Higher Education and International student fees are not subject to any early settlement discount.

PART PAYMENT AGREEMENTS If a course is more than ÂŁ200 and 10 weeks in duration you can set up an instalment plan of up to three months. This will be for three equal instalments, the first payable on enrolment. Instalment plans are not available for companies that are sponsoring learners. If you withdraw, before all instalments have been received, we will still require all future instalments to be paid and will seek to recover any outstanding instalments if necessary.

ADVANCED LEARNER LOANS

REFUNDS

Funding for Level 3 or 4 courses is no longer available for students aged between 19 and 23 who already have a full Level 3 qualification, or for any student aged 24 and over studying at Level 3 or higher. This means you will need to pay the full cost of the course. However, you can apply for an Advanced Learner Loan to help with these costs.

A refund will be given if a course has been cancelled by the College and no suitable alternative can be found. If your course is longer than 12 weeks and you enrol but do not start the course or withdraw within the first 2 weeks of the start date of the course a refund will be given but an administration charge of £30 will be applied. If you withdraw after 2 weeks of commencement of the course you will still be liable for all outstanding fees that are owed to the College. Queries related to refunds can be emailed to our Finance Department at the following e-mail address: finance@ccb.ac.uk.

Any courses applicable to these loans are marked. The Advanced Learner Loan is easy to apply for, doesn’t take your household income into account and doesn’t involve a credit check. For learners who do not already hold a full Level 3 qualification, fee remission is subject to qualification eligibility. If the qualification is not entitlement eligible, you will need to pay the full cost of the course. For more details contact Student Services on 01273 667759 or visit www.ccb.ac.uk.

WHAT IF MY EMPLOYER IS PAYING? If your employer is paying for your course fees they will need to complete the Contract of Sponsorship form which can be downloaded from www.ccb.ac.uk. Completed forms can either be handed in when you enrol or can be sent to: Finance Department (Room PT220) City College Brighton and Hove, Pelham Street, Brighton, BN1 4FA. Once the Contract of Sponsorship is received you will not be required to pay any fees at enrolment.

WHAT BENEFITS WILL I RECEIVE IF I SPONSOR AN EMPLOYEE?

Once you have agreed to sponsor a learner, we will send you a sponsor pack, which includes an employer charter and a fee account statement including methods of payment. We will offer regular feedback on progress. We offer customised courses in addition to the offer set out in this course guide, including delivery at your premises and a free training needs analysis.

PATTERN CUTTING INTRODUCTION

Develop your sewing skills and learn how to make your own clothes using a commercial pattern. Each term you will work towards making a new garment, starting with a skirt or pyjama trousers for complete beginners. To start, you will be introduced to the College sewing machines and shown how to thread up and sew a variety of basic and more decorative seams.

On this dynamic course your specialist tutor will show you how to draft a basic block pattern and how this can be adapted to your own design. You will produce a sample of your garment (toile) and learn how to fit, adjust and create the finished piece. There will be some input on garment construction but the main emphasis will be pattern cutting. It is a fast moving, structured course which does require some additional work at home.

The course will take you through the whole process of making a garment including selecting and cutting the right size of pattern, adapting patterns to fit your shape, cutting out fabrics, sewing darts, pleats and seams, inserting zips, attaching sleeves, collars, cuffs and stitching hems. Sewing machines and overlockers are available to use, although you may find it useful to have your own sewing machine at home to continue your garment and practise techniques away from the class.

The events on the frontline in both World Wars are well documented; however, on this course you will gain a fascinating insight into domestic, working and social life in Britain during the wars.

These periods are brought to life by slides, books, period texts and film clips, including documentaries.

An era when cinema really reached its heyday, you will discover that early film was educational as well as entertaining, giving ordinary people the chance to view new and exciting events. You will watch film clips, noting cultural aspects and social conditions, which we hope will lead to a lively group discussion.

This is then complemented by three field trips, on which you will visit places of interest in this unique city, learning how Brighton evolved from a small Georgian fishing town to the vibrant seaside resort of today.

HOLIDAY SPANISH SHORT COURSE

SPANISH YEAR 1 SHORT COURSE

If you are jetting off to sunnier climates for a break and want to interact with native speakers as much as possible, then this course will equip you to do just that. Develop basic language skills for ordering food and drink, shopping and everyday communication. Of course, if you are bitten by the Spanish language bug, you are also able to progress to one of our longer courses.

Simple phrases and mastering pronunciation are the order of the day on this introductory course. By the end of the course we hope you will be confident in everyday conversation, and be able to greet, make friends, ask questions and talk about your own background, understand and order from a menu and ask for directions. The course is weighted towards a practical approach, concentrating on speaking and listening skills, with grammar study limited to that which is necessary for comprehension.
