On Wednesday, 5th April, South West College will host the inaugural "Fit for Success: A Sport and Education Conference," aimed at demonstrating the diverse career paths available in the sports industry, showcasing the range of courses on offer at SWC, and engaging with potential students, sports industry professionals, and clubs.
At South West College we pride ourselves on student focus, superb facilities, industry engagement and accessibility for all. For a long time, university was considered the only option for undergraduate or Higher Education study, but in recent years, many students have chosen to a University equivalent course at Further Education Colleges like SWC.
At South West College we know that education is a lifelong pursuit and that no two educational journeys are the same. As such, we are proud that all our courses and opportunities are available and suitable to adult learners of any age and can be made to suit your lifestyle and work-life commitments.
Leaving school is a momentous moment in anyone’s educational journey. Often it means decision time, and no more than ever students receiving GCSE or A Level results have an abundance of options to choose from.
An apprenticeship can give you the training and qualifications you need to help you get ahead in your chosen career.
Our prospectuses will give you a detailed overview of the courses we offer and the support services that supplement them. If you prefer to read through a paper prospectus you can pick one up at your nearest campus.
