Helping you learn new skills and develop existing ones
As an anchor institution in Stoke on Trent, Our College continues on an upward trajectory following the recent announcement of the College’s Ofsted ‘Good’ rating, we continue to drive forward our excellence agenda to fulfil our promise to help apprentices to achieve their aspirations and employers to have a demonstrative positive impact within their business and workforce.
With our excellent facilities and highly skilled staff who are industry experts, we teach the knowledge, skills and behaviours towards a chosen apprenticeship, enabling the apprentice to put them straight into practice in the workplace.
