We offer an array of short courses that can set your workforce up for the future. The Scottish Funding Council’s upskilling funding provides Scottish-based learners with fully funded places on selected courses.

Bespoke Training and CPD

A diverse range of organisations, from large private sector clients to charities to SMEs, benefit from our bespoke CPD and custom training. We address the skills gap and future workforce needs of organisations and make them more productive, profitable and agile.

Graduate Apprenticeships

Graduate Apprenticeships give any business of any size in Scotland the chance to develop their staff through fully funded, degree level training. Graduate Apprentices learn on the job, allowing you to train and retain top talent that understands your business needs.

Work With Our Students

Build business capacity and create a talent pipeline for the future by working with our students. We offer a range of placement and internship opportunities - students enhance their transferable skills in leadership, teamwork and project management and can bring new ideas into your organisation.
