Welcome
H
ere at BDDA you are guaranteed a positive learning
experience in a friendly, relaxed environment. Our range
of courses offers the opportunity for adults in the
community to develop their skills and access training
courses in a location close to them. Our Centre is fully
accessible and there are disabled parking bays in the
adjacent car park.
We are delighted to introduce our new course brochure,
detailing our wide range of quality day and evening
courses and we think we have something for everyone.
Our courses range from complete beginners to more
advanced level and run throughout the year. We are
always looking to offer new courses, so if there is a
course you would like to do which is not listed here,
please get in touch.
All of our courses run throughout the year, so to find out
when the next course is available, to reserve a place, or
for more information, either call into our Centre, telephone or send us an email.
We look forward to hearing from you and getting
started!
Computers
Our computer suite is equipped
with the latest technology and
provides a comfortable, safe and
accessible learning zone. Classes
are also restricted to a maximum

possible support from your tutor. These are just some of the
courses on offer...
