You may have heard about an outbreak of Meningitis in the county, and we can understand that you may be worried about this. In response to this, we want to ensure that you are aware of what symptoms to look out for and understand what you need to do if you or your young person develops symptoms.
Please note, our College remains open, and students should attend as normal.
Are you curious about how things work, enjoy problem-solving, or excited by robotics? Our Level 2 Diploma in Engineering is a practical way to turn your interests into technical skills.
English and Maths are an important part of the course. If you do not yet have a grade 4/C in GCSE English and Maths, you’ll be supported to study these subjects alongside your main course. If this is the case, you will complete the course over two years; this will allow you additional time to gain these qualifications.
On this course, you’ll explore what a future career in engineering and manufacturing could look like. From designing circuits and programming robotics to machining components and working with digital technologies, you’ll build the skills and confidence employers value.
This project-based course is designed to prepare you for a professional engineering environment. You’ll train in our purpose-built engineering workshop, using industry-standard machines and software to bring your projects to life.
You’ll be supported throughout the course by expert tutors who will guide you through both the theory and practical elements. You’ll learn how to safely operate machinery and develop your skills using Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacture (CAM) programmes, helping you grow in confidence as you progress.
During the course, you’ll study key modules including:
• Health and safety
• Workshop skills
• Understanding electronics
• Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Computer Aided Manufacture (CAM)
• Maths and science
Alongside your studies, you’ll complete a tailored work experience placement with a leading industry specialist. Our dedicated Industry Liaison Officers will support you to find a placement that matches your interests and career goals.
To support your learning, you’ll have access to our specially designed centre for engineering, with equipment including Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines, 3D printers, and milling machinery. These industry-focused spaces are designed to help you develop the skills, confidence, and experience needed to succeed in the engineering industry.
