All of our programmes are designed with employment in mind and link directly back to the workplace. On successful completion of your course, you’ll have the opportunity to don a gown and mortar board for the official Graduation Ceremony.

Why choose Higher Education at Swindon College…

HE

CENTRE

HE Students have the use of a plasma TV in the chill-out area with comfy sofas and chairs to relax in, a seating area for food and drinks an internet café-style bar, plus an adjoining computer suite.

CLASS SIZES! Our class sizes are smaller, this means you get more of your lecturer’s time and greater support.
