Trent Education Centre (TEC) has been providing functional skills and vocational training courses to adults in Nottingham, Leicester and Birmingham since 2012.  Many of the people we support believe that they have missed their chance for an education.  They may have left school recently or many years ago, and lack the academic skills or confidence to study at a university.   TEC exists to support such people.  We help them build their self-esteem and competencies, so they can succeed in education at university level and go on to career success.
