Our ambition is matched by our impact. We’re the largest college provider of 16–18 apprenticeships, with the highest progression rates to apprenticeships and employment in Greater Manchester. More than 1,500 employers work with us to shape skills, create opportunities and give our students the experience they need to succeed.

This includes the transformational redevelopment of our Parsons Walk Campus, bringing new opportunities and exceptional technical facilities to the heart of Wigan.
From Entry Level through to graduate, professional and postgraduate study, our specialist vocational and technical courses help people build skills, change direction and progress their careers. As a University Centre, we also help people start out, retrain and upskill close to home.
As the lead further education partner in the Greater Manchester Institute of Technology (GMIoT), we work with national and global employers to deliver higher technical education and Level 4 and 5 qualifications connected to the world of work.
Our ambition is bigger than education. It’s about creating opportunity, strengthening our economy and helping people across Wigan and Leigh build a future they’re proud of.
