Criminon UK is a national charity that has been providing distance-learning courses for offenders and ex-offenders for over 22 years. Four of our courses in literacy, practical morals and drug awareness are accredited through Laser Learning Awards, an Ofqual approved organisation affiliated with the University of Kent.

Our courses are based upon the non-religious works of L Ron Hubbard who was also the founder of Scientology. However we are a secular charity that is independently managed and we welcome anyone interested in tutoring, irrespective of age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, religious or non-religious belief etc.

Whilst previous tutoring experience will be advantageous, no experience is necessary as full training will be given.
