Welcome to NewLink in Nottingham
This centre provides a range of training including computer training for beginners to advanced. Courses in literacy and numeracy are also available.

Our Information Technology education courses run on five days a week and there are currently about 80 students in training, at various levels ranging from Learning with Information Technology classes through to courses which include ; Spreadsheets; Databases; Desktop Publishing; Internet skills; Digital Photography and ECDL Qualifications.

Students are allowed to work on the courses at their own speed, making it easier for the slower students but also allowing the faster students to go further with their work. This is an essential part of the courses as students have varying disabilities.

All of the NewLink centre's courses have been funded through a franchise agreement with City College Coventry for 10 years, until July 2006. In the future, funding will come from a variety of sources, including project work. Our centres are now very well-equipped as a result of support from Social Services, lottery and local business.
