Empowering Futures – Short Courses

ASDAN Qualifications & Programmes at Empowering Futures

At Empowering Futures, we use ASDAN’s wide range of programmes to support learners of all ages and abilities. We ensure that every learner completes a baseline test when joining us so that we can set realistic goals, track progress, and provide the right level of support.


All sessions are delivered in a way that is personalised to learner interests and embedded with Maths, English and Digital Skills, so students don’t fall behind in their current school curriculum while benefiting from additional vocational and personal development opportunities.

We embed the Lifeskills Challenge into our online programmes to enhance the learning experience. Learners complete additional tasks tailored to their chosen vocational area, developing core skills while earning ASDAN certification for each completed challenge.


Lifeskills Challenge activities are embedded into our classroom provision to enhance learning outcomes and provide additional accreditation. These challenges allow learners to apply their skills in real-world contexts, linked to their chosen vocational area, while building personal and social skills that support long-term success.


All our programmes can be studied in the classroom, online or blended-learning.
