Whether you are looking to learn a new skill, re-skill, or keen to pursue career development with additional professional qualifications, our range of flexible courses offer daytime, evening and part-time study options that are designed to fit around you and your existing commitments. We recognise that the increasing cost of living poses challenges for adults hoping to continue or return to education. Preston College is committed to support you where we can through bursaries and tuition fee funds, and we have a team of specialist advisors ready to provide guidance and assistance based on your individual circumstances. We are dedicated to delivering a curriculum that will equip you with the skills required for an ever-evolving job market. Our curriculum is both diverse and progressive, as we continually innovate to not only meet employer demand, but to provide qualifications that allow you to succeed in your industry of choice, ensuring that your educational investment pays off. With this in mind, we understand the importance of staying ahead in the world of technology, and we are proud to have been selected as one of the region’s founding partners of the Institute of Technology (IoT), providing higher-level technical courses and ensuring learners are prepared for the digital age. Our recently granted status, by the Department for Education, as a recognised University Centre reinforces our reputation as a leading provider of higher education, IoT technical courses, higher apprenticeships and professional courses. While our growing range of adult courses provide further valuable CPD opportunities, ranging from essential digital skills, to maths and English through to courses which support the development of local skill needs for those working across an array of sectors. On the campus, you will find a host of purpose-built facilities including our Construction Skills Centre (including our architecture suite), our functional science laboratories, a brand new state of the art IoT digital innovation lab, and hair, barbering and beauty facilities that offer real work environments. On top of this, our sector specialist staff will ensure you have an excellent experience allowing you to thrive and achieve your goals – whatever they may be.
