About Us
Welcome to New Skills Academy – Part of the Be-a Education Family

Freedom to Study
Offering a broad range of course options is a good start, but we envisioned so much more for our students. We take great pride in offering our students the ability to study anytime, anywhere, and it is our belief that an award winning business would settle for nothing less.
Often, people dream of pursuing a degree or certification but never find the time to follow through. We know life gets busy, which is why our customers can take our courses online from anywhere while still working. Students can access our courses from a PC, mobile phone or tablet; this means you can learn anywhere you go.
Once students access our courses, they are offered up to date subject information for a lifetime!
Learn with Confidence
Our students’ reputation matters, which is why all of our online courses have been reviewed and certified in partnership with qualified industry experts. For added security and peace of mind, all of our courses have been approved by CPD. We welcome these reviews because we believe in our students, their interests, and ability to pursue and learn any new skill they may desire along the way.
Multi-Award Winning
New Skills Academy are proud to say that we are a multiple award winning company.
We have won both local and global awards in such categories as Best E-business, Outstanding Business, Family Business, Small Business and Entrepreneur of the Year.
As well as awards for the company as a whole, our co-founder, Chris Morgan, has been honoured for his hard work and dedication to bringing e-learning to individuals across the globe. He recently won both the Business Person of the Year award at the Hertfordshire Business Awards and Family Business Entrepreneur of the Year at the NatWest Great British Entrepreneur Awards.
We really do feel proud that our business’ aims and ambitions have been recognised in the positive light we had always hoped for.
The whole team at New Skills Academy are over the moon with this massive morale booster and are resolute on striving forward with an even stronger and more determined approach in the future.
Supporting Teens Unite
New Skills Academy and Teens Unite have recently established an amazing partnership between our two organisations. Since New Skills Academy is a place to pursue personal and professional development, Teens Unite will now be able to use the valuable content and courses we have in place for the young people that they support.
We will also be working closely with Teens Unite to help support and link our content with the workshops that they hold.

What our students say about us...
It was an eye opening course that was flexible and easy to access. I was able to complete it from the comfort of my own home whilst also having the tasks to complete which enabled me to check my knowledge. I know feel much more confident in my field of work and really enjoyed doing it.
Ellie Clarke
I took up this course initially to help me with my own dog, but found that as I worked through the material I actually started thinking that this could be something that I could use to make a second income. From start to finish I found the course engaging and interesting. I am now doing another dog related course and am experiencing the same level of enjoyment. I would recommend New Skills Academy without hesitation.
Keith Smith
Excellent course, well explained and easy to understand. The course can be done at my own pace and is available on various devices. The layout of the course was excellent and the notes options is very good. The content is perfect and well structured, making it easy to understand and follow. I will definitely be taking more courses in the future.
Luis Costa
Very interesting and helpful course. I ve learned a lot of interesting things about make up and the tutorials were very helpful and easy to understand. I really reccomend this course for everyone who is passionate about make up and wish to develop their skills and make a career from their hobby.
Nicoleta Lucaci

I want to thank New Skills Academy so much for making this as simple as possible for me.
Shari Anderson
This course is a great way to brush up on my rusty excel skills, I recommend this course to anyone looking for something to do during lockdown, it's easy to use and talks you through each stage step by step. It has given me the confidence I need to further my career.
Georgia Darke
The course was clearly set out with helpful end of week tests which built my knowledge. Being dyslexic I found the course was set out in an easy to understand way. I was able to pass the test on my first attempt. The downloaded pdf are a useful resource that you can keep forever. Looking forward to the next course
Ross Dunsten
I found this course incredibly useful, as it provided me with practical knowledge which I can implement in my role as a Support Worker. The videos were clear and concise, and the downloadable worksheets reinforced what I had learned as I was able to put pen to paper. Overall, a fantastic course for a great price! I am looking forward to taking on my next one.
