Published requirement descriptionGloucestershire County Council currently provides a range of courses to assist the people of
Gloucestershire back to work, improve their employment prospects, confidence and health
& wellbeing.
The majority of provision is delivered by the service direct delivery arm, Adult Education in
Gloucestershire (AEiG). Where need is best met through local or specialist services, the

courses or piece of work, for each qualifying academic year
