Our Mantra: Creating Employable Talent.

Our Mission.

To help bridge the digital skills gap we will remain relevant and current by focusing on 4 key areas:

Inspiring.
Inspire more people, from all areas and backgrounds, to take that first step in Digital.

Accessible.
Our courses will be accessible to all, we will focus on; Affordability – Aim to make our courses free or funded through Government or Employer support or subsidy. Education – Course completion will be achievable for all educational backgrounds. Equipment – We will provide access to the necessary kit to complete the course. Diversity – We will appeal to all genders, race and age.
Personalised.
Your learning, Your way – Learn from home, our campus, our partner organisation or an employer…or a hybrid of them all. You will have an individual learning plan, and we will support you to achieve your pathway to a positive outcome, whether that’s employment or further education or learning.
