The Adult & Community Learning Skills Coach will deliver high-quality teaching, assessment, and learner support to adults aged 19+ across a range of community-based programmes funded through the Adult Skills Fund (ASF) for the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority. Programmes may range from short courses (15 days) to longer programmes (up to 20 weeks) and will support adults to develop skills, confidence, employability, and progression opportunities.
