Workplace Training

Things are always changing around us.

Technology, legislation, customer needs etc. That is why you always need to ensure your people have the right skills and qualifications to continue to do a great job.

The college offers a wide range of courses to develop your workforce, including a range of Skills for Work courses and programmes including mandatory courses such as First Aid, Food Safety and Health & Safety programmes.
