Evening Programme
The Evening Programme has been designed to provide self-development for participants. It provides an opportunity for the employed and unemployed to upgrade their skills, be retrained or acquire new skills.
Please note that places on the Evening Programme are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Persons wishing to register for a course should therefore confirm their place by paying the necessary fees as soon as possible after registration as the course may become full before the registration deadline.
You may apply online, but fees must be paid at the Barbados Vocational Training Board's Headquarters at "Lawrence Green House", Culloden Road, St. Michael between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Mondays to Fridays. All programmes run for twelve (12) weeks unless otherwise stated.
Fee Refunds
If a student withdraws from a class before the third session of the course an administrative fee of $50.00 will be deducted from the refunded payment. No refunds will be made after this time.
Full refunds of course fees will only occur if the course is cancelled. All under-subscribed classes will be cancelled.
Refunds will only be made by cheque.
Certification
Participants are awarded a certificate on successful completion of the course.
Registration
Registration for the January - April 2026 Evening Programme runs until January 23, 2026 or until the class is full.
Unlisted classes are not being offered at this time.
