A recent Education Scotland HM Inspectors report said:
“Full-time further education courses at Borders College surpassed the sector average for learner success, with Higher Education completion rates exceeding the sector norm.”
Borders College is a real community college, offering learning opportunities for the local and emerging sector markets. Their students and staff enjoy first-class facilities in the relaxed rural setting of the Scottish Borders, making it the ideal location to study – and that’s not all.
New provision, such as E-sports and Green Skills, are delivered alongside key areas including Business, Computing, Hospitality, and Sport. Specialised courses such as Mountain Biking, Rugby, and Horse Care help to complement the demand for local skills.
Higher Education is more important than ever because of the ever-changing labour markets. It equips students with the necessary skills to promote economic and technological change and opens doors to progression routes.
