Pre-Accredited Training (also known as Learn Local and ACFE training)
Pre-Accredited Training
Many members of the North East Neighbourhood House Network are Learn Local providers. This means that they offer Pre-accredited training, which is funded by the Adult, Community and Further Education Board (ACFE).
Pre-accredited training provides opportunities for adult learners in Victoria to gain the educational capacity and core skills they need for study, work and life.
If you’re new to the Learn Local sector - visit this website for an introduction to pre-accredited training.
