Multiply24

Project Applicant: Coleg Sir Gâr

Project title: Multiply 24

Investment Priority: People & Skills

Location: Carmarthenshire

As part of the multiply section of SPF funding, Multiply24 will be implemented in partnership with Coleg Sir Gar, Carmarthenshire County Council and Adult Learning Wales which will focus on outreach and flexible learning delivery, focusing on hard to reach/rural settings.

The project aims to identify and engage with young people over 19 years old and adults that have low levels of numeracy skills – empowering them to undertake numeracy courses and achieve level 2 maths qualifications. This will ultimately achieve better labour market outcomes for the participants and upskill the existing workforce.

Multiply24 aims to achieve equity of access through hybrid learning, learning through coaching and mentoring and mixed reality teaching – using Virtual Reality tools to recreate real life contexts to develop the confidence levels of the participants. The main focus of the project delivery will be engaging with the community after the COVID-19 pandemic.
