Short Modularised Courses at Delight: Upskill Fast Without a Full Programme

By Delight Technical College | Short Courses | 2026

Not everyone wants or needs a full diploma. Some people have specific skills they want to add quickly without committing to a two-year programme. Delight Technical College understands this, which is why we offer short modularised courses and micro-credentials that let you upskill in a targeted way, on your schedule.

⚡ What Are Short Modularised Courses?

Delight’s short courses are individual modules or small clusters of modules extracted from our full programmes and offered as standalone, self-contained learning experiences. They are:

• Shorter in duration- from a few weeks to a term
• Focused on a specific skill or knowledge area
• Available to learners who do not meet the entry requirements for a full programme
• Perfect for working professionals who want to upskill without stopping work
• A way to ‘test the waters’ before committing to a full qualification

🏅 Micro-Credentials

Delight also issues micro-credentials for completed short courses- documented evidence of specific skills that can be added to a CV or professional profile. In the modern job market, these targeted credentials are increasingly valued by employers alongside (and sometimes instead of) traditional qualifications.

💡 Who Should Consider Short Courses?

• Working professionals wanting to add a new skill
• Entrepreneurs wanting to handle some of their own creative work
• Students considering a full programme who want to try before committing
• Hobbyists who want quality training without a formal qualification
• Graduates wanting to specialise in a specific area
