We bring education into the heart of communities, providing high-quality, student-centred and tutor-led education to adults, whatever your age or stage in life.

Not everyone has access to the opportunities provided by education. We believe they should. That’s why we at the WEA help adults learn, no matter where they are, no matter what their circumstances.

We’ve been helping adults to learn since 1903, and with 2,300 course locations around the country, it means there is a WEA within the reach of 80% of the people that need it most. We take our courses out into communities nationwide, reaching people that conventional adult education can’t because they are often the ones that need it most.

Our professional tutors take the time to build trust and empathy with each student we teach, so we understand how learning can improve their lives, not just what their learning needs are inside the classroom. See how WEA courses have changed the lives of people like Lisa, Margaret, a community in Rochdale and many more people by reading our inspiring stories.

Working with young people aged 18-24 who need extra support to help them along the path to sustainable employment.

As well as helping young people to find work, the programme aims to provide individuals with the skills and resilience that they need to navigate a fulfilling career.

Talent Match recognises that different people will need different levels of support to gain employment. The programme has a particular focus on helping young people who have been long-term unemployed and face significant barriers to employment, such as parenting or caring responsibilities, disability or a lack of education, to find career opportunities.

The Talent Match Partnerships work with individuals to tailor support according to their needs and aspirations, which can include wellbeing and mental health support, as well as practical help.

People in the Lead 

Talent Match has been initiated by, co-designed and delivered with young people. Learning from the programme is being shared at a national and international level, as our partnerships and young people seek to contribute to policy and practice.

Young people sit as equal partners on decision-making boards at local partnerships and are involved of all aspects of the programme, from design to implementation, including selection of staff and providers, and carrying out research and evaluations of services.
