There is no mention of this type of loan on their current website.0 -
Jones, yes a CELTA course is externally accredited and validated by the University of Cambridge and is the only internationally recognised English Language Teaching qualifcation. There are equivs but the CELTA or Trinity are the two most highly regarded quals around.
Paul - did you apply for a career development loan? I am waiting to receive the application pack in the post - This page might be helpful if you're still looking into it (you probably have already found all the info out you need, but just in case) http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/EducationAndLearning/AdultLearning/FinancialHelpForAdultLearners/CareerDevelopmentLoans/DG_10033237

I tried to get CELTA course funding but nobody will help.
Even tried crisis loan explaining how it could help me and Government jobs figures.
They want you off the dole but they cant lend or fund you for possible new qualification to get you working abroad. IF things have changed past five months please tell me.0 -
