Nova was established as a private training provider in September 1992 and celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2022. Over the years Nova has operated a number of youth and adult training programmes. 

Our head office has always remained in Willenhall town centre (within Walsall Local Authority). Historically we have delivered training programmes across all four Black Country Local Authorities. In 2001 we opened our first centre outside the Black Country, setting up a motor vehicle workshop in Telford. Since then the company has spread its wings further. Our focus has remained on supporting young people aged 14-24. At the present day, Nova now operates its 14-24 provision from 13 locations. Our centres are located in Birmingham, Cannock, Clacton-on-Sea, Colchester, Dereham, Dudley, Kidderminster, Oldbury, Walsall, Wellington, West Bromwich, Willenhall and Wolverhampton. 

Our Apprenticeship programmes see us delivering education further afield as we support a number of national employers. 

Our programme delivery now includes; 16-18 study programmes, pre-apprenticeships, provision for learners with high needs, apprenticeships and 14-16 alternative provision. We offer maths, English and ICT training as part of our courses and also deliver vocational training in a number sectors and trades.
