Skipton Builders Provides Local Support

Skipton Builders Proud to Support Local Education Success Stories

At Skipton Builders, we are passionate about more than simply constructing and renovating properties. As a local business, we believe in supporting the wider community and celebrating organisations that are making a positive impact across Skipton, North Yorkshire and beyond.

One such success story is PASS and its consumer education brand, Pass Learn, two local businesses helping thousands of learners across the UK achieve their educational and career ambitions.

A Local Business with National Reach

Founded in North Yorkshire, PASS has grown into one of the UK's leading education technology businesses. Working with schools, colleges, training providers, employers and learners, the company develops innovative digital learning solutions that help make education more accessible.

From its headquarters in the region, PASS supports education providers and learners throughout the UK, demonstrating how local businesses can have a national impact while remaining committed to their community roots.

As fellow local businesses, we understand the challenges and opportunities that come with growing an organisation while maintaining strong local connections.

Helping Learners Achieve Their Goals

Through its learner-focused brand, Pass Learn, the business offers flexible pathways into education and employment for people of all ages.

Whether someone is looking to return to education, improve their qualifications or change careers entirely, Pass Learn provides recognised qualifications that can open new opportunities.

Its expanding range of educational services includes:

• Access to Higher Education Diplomas.

• Functional Skills qualifications.

• GCSE qualifications.

• Career-focused educational pathways.

The flexible approach to learning allows students to study around work and family commitments, helping education fit around modern life.

Supporting Future Healthcare Professionals and Teachers

One of the most exciting developments at Pass Learn has been the introduction of Access to Higher Education Diplomas.

These qualifications provide an alternative route into university for adult learners and are particularly valuable for those looking to pursue careers in sectors where skilled professionals are in high demand.

Popular progression routes include:

• Nursing.

• Midwifery.

• Teaching.

• Allied Health Professions.

• Psychology and Mental Health.

• Childcare and Education.

Many learners who may not have followed a traditional educational path are now able to access university and pursue rewarding careers through these flexible programmes.

Functional Skills and GCSE Qualifications

Education doesn't always follow a straight line.

Many adults return to learning later in life to improve their Maths and English qualifications or gain the GCSEs they need for career progression, apprenticeships or university applications.

Pass Learn helps learners access Functional Skills and GCSE qualifications through flexible study options designed to fit around busy lifestyles.

These qualifications can provide the stepping stones needed to unlock future opportunities, whether that's a new job, promotion or further study.

Investing in the Future of Our Community

Businesses play an important role in strengthening local communities.

While Skipton Builders focuses on creating and improving homes and commercial spaces, organisations like PASS are helping to build brighter futures through education.

A thriving local economy depends upon successful businesses from a wide range of sectors, and it is encouraging to see innovative education companies choosing to grow and invest in North Yorkshire.

Their success helps create skilled jobs, attracts investment to the area and provides opportunities for local people while delivering services that benefit learners across the country.

Celebrating Local Success

At Skipton Builders, we are proud to support and celebrate businesses that contribute positively to our local community.

PASS and Pass Learn are excellent examples of how ambitious local organisations can grow into nationally recognised brands while staying true to their Yorkshire roots.

As they continue to expand their educational offering and help more learners achieve their ambitions, we look forward to seeing their continued success and the positive impact they will have on individuals, families and communities across the UK.

Supporting local businesses means supporting the future of our region, and we're proud to champion organisations that are making a real difference.
