Using PIP/UC to pay for part time in person College course?

I'm waiting for a call from Sheffield College to invite me to a skills assessment for a level 1 programming course down at City College, however, as I was 50 the week before last, I somehow doubt I'd qualify for the course funding, therefore would I be able to pay for it with PIP/UC money?

I don't think it'd be cheap that's all, back when I did full time College between 1995 and 97 I was only 19-21 and therefore under 25, obviously now it's nearly 30 years later.

Can anyone answer this?

I am aware of Google.
