The Sheffield College is a general Further Education College in the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority, providing high quality academic, technical and vocational training to enhance qualifications, skills and employability across the region.
Adopting a 'one college approach', we operate from a number of sites across the city with fantastic facilities at each. We work in close partnership with schools, universities and employers to ensure that our provision is responsive to the needs of the city, our students, and the wider skills market.
Our campuses include City, Hillsborough, Olive Grove, Peaks, Fir Vale and Eyre Street.
We offer a range of learner and training opportunities on full and part time basis from entry levels through to foundation degrees, as well as a number of high quality Apprenticeship opportunities.
Our curriculum provides routes to learn new skills and opportunities to refresh skills in a sociable and welcoming atmosphere, with award winning student support services.
Many of our learners go on to contribute to Sheffield’s thriving economy and success and, as a result of their time with us, enjoy productive and high value employment, and rewarding lives.
Our Mission: To transform lives through learning.
