Do your NQ's at D&A!
Feeling confident with numbers and maths helps you with everything we do in life.
It might help with working out the finances of the household bills, the measuring required in the kitchen when cooking a meal or helping your child with their homework. Gaining a qualification might support you to get the job you have always wanted. Whatever your need, we are here to help with the Multiply Project.
Our tailored approach means you can receive 1-to-1 support at a place and time that suits you best, this might be face to face, online or a mix of both. We also can get your participation recognised by providing access to SQA accredited qualifications where required.
If you live in Dundee or Angus, are aged 19 or over and you don't already have a Maths qualification at National 5, Grade C, you are eligible to take part in these activities. If you are living in the Dundee and Angus areas and are aged 16-18, if you are not in education, employment or training then you are also eligible to take part.
