About this course

Free Functional Skills Maths Level 2 in Sheffield. Daytime classes run at CTS Training. You'll have an initial assessment to confirm this is the right level for you, and the centre will use it to plan your learning. The course covers the maths skills employers ask for, from working with numbers and percentages to problem-solving in everyday contexts. It takes around 100 hours to complete. A Level 2 functional skills maths qualification is the recognised GCSE maths equivalent when employers ask for maths at that level.
