I've noticed one or two posts on here about online learning for adults. If 
you're interested in a level 2 qualification in work, self improvement or IT 
related subjects, vision2learn.co.uk is worth a look. I'm taking an IT 
course at the moment and can thouroughly recommend it, I have support from a 
tutor at a local FE college that I was assigned to, and the course content 
is easy to understand and work through. The courses are generally free for 
most students. There are also some NVQ courses available.
