Essential Maths Skills: Multiply

UCQ offer a range of training to improve your maths skills.  Multiply is a free course to help you improve your maths skills.  It can help your everyday life, from managing your finances to helping your children with their homework.  The programme can also support you to get a job or progress to study other qualifications.

At the start of the programme learners undertake an initial assessment, followed by a diagnostic test, to identify areas requiring further development.

We deliver using a range of workshops, 1-2-1 sessions and online support to prepare staff to take their functional skills assessment.  The delivery method can be customised to meet the needs of your organisation, shift patterns and company locations.

Upon successful completion students will have developed maths skills and can progress to a Functional Skills maths qualification.

Students will be supported by a dedicated tutor who will work with them to develop the necessary skills for successful completion.

Costs: The course is fully funded (subject to location). There are no further costs required for resources, teaching, or assessment/exams.
