The teaching areas are newly built and equipped with industry standard computers and software. Courses in Computing and IT are available at all levels and many students progress from one level of course to the next. The HND provides students with the knowledge and skills to get a range of jobs in the computing industry or go on to the second year of a degree. The AVCE in IT is aimed at people who want advanced experience and understanding of using computer software and databases while the National Diplomas in Computing allow students to specialise, after a common first year, in business applications, networking and data communications or in software development and programming. The Intermediate and Certificate courses cover the main IT software packages and the Intermediate also focuses on the handling and presentation of information as well as networking and some programming.
Every student is allocated a named tutor to give support throughout the programme of studies.
All students will be provided with an enrichment and key skills programme and have access to the wide range of college activities. Courses are offered by the programme area of Computing and Information Technology and a range of part-time and taster courses are also available allowing students to gain specific skills and progress.
