Free courses are being offered to help people in Bradford return to work or start new careers.
Shipley College is delivering the training through a new initiative aimed at adults who want to gain qualifications and improve job prospects.
Courses will initially be held at Velvet Mills, Meridian Centre, and Safety First on Little Horton Lane to make learning more accessible.
Martin Silverwood, principal of Shipley College, said: "We want to make it as easy as possible for people to take that first step towards work.
"There are people across Bradford who want to work, return to work or start a completely new career, but coming onto a college campus isn't always the easiest place to begin.
"So we're taking the courses into communities."
The courses focus on career pathways with strong employment potential, including teaching assistant, health and social care, childcare, and business administration.
Each area offers clear routes to paid employment and further progression.
The programme is designed to support adults who may have been out of work or education for some time, as well as those seeking a career change.
Eligible learners can enrol for free, and drop-in sessions are available at each location to help individuals choose the right course and register on the spot.
