TECHNICAL. SKILLS. WORK
We're proud to be a partner in the Lancashire and Cumbria Institute of Technology (IoT). As part of a national network of Institutes of Technology, located across England, we are proud to work in partnership with local colleges, universities and leading employers.
Together, we create high‑quality technical pathways that directly support regional and national skills needs. This opportunity enables us to offer first-rate technical education, aligning with our commitment to excellence.
Our focus will be on Construction and Engineering with programmes co‑designed with employers to ensure every course is shaped by real industry insight. This collaboration means learners develop the advanced technical skills that today’s businesses value most, making them highly competitive and workplace‑ready. It also opens up flexible pathways for adults seeking higher‑level study, ensuring that people at every stage of life can access opportunities to progress.
IoTs are designed to:
- Greatly boost the count of learners possessing advanced technical qualifications.
- Provide the skills demanded by employers, vital for enhancing local, regional, and national productivity.
- Attract diverse learners to address the lack of equality in some technical workforces and maximise their social and economic effect.
- Helps adults who want open access to higher education, whether they are in employment or not.
