It is my pleasure, on behalf of the governors and staff of South West College, to welcome you to South West College.

Choosing the next step in your education is one of the most important decisions you’ll make — whether you are progressing after your GCSEs or A Levels, retraining for a new career, or continuing your studies at a higher level. Our College is home to ambitious, creative and talented learners who continue to inspire us every day. Many of them once stood where you are now, exploring options for the future, and their success stories show just what’s possible with the right opportunities and support.

There are many reasons why people choose South West College. Learners consistently tell us that our welcoming, supportive community and the encouragement they receive from tutors make their experience here both enjoyable and rewarding.

We are proud to offer a diverse range of programmes, from entry level to degree and professional qualifications, delivered across our modern campuses in Cookstown, Dungannon, Enniskillen and Omagh. Our courses are designed in partnership with employers and taught by staff with real industry experience, ensuring you gain the skills, knowledge and confidence to thrive in the world of work and beyond.

At South West College, you are never on your journey alone. Our dedicated tutors and Student Services teams provide guidance, advice and care to help you achieve your goals. We want your time with us to be meaningful — filled with learning, personal growth, fun experiences, new friendships and preparation for a fulfilling career.

Outside the classroom, our Students’ Union offers a wide variety of clubs, societies, social events and sporting opportunities, helping you make the most of college life.

We are extremely proud of our learners and their achievements. Our most recent Student Survey showed outstanding levels of satisfaction, and we are especially proud that the vast majority of our students progress to employment, apprenticeships or further study after completing their course.

We are delighted to have you with us here at South West College for the 2025-2026 academic year and we look forward to supporting you as you take the next step towards your future.
