West College Scotland's Schools' Vocational Programme
The courses we offer are ideal if you want to explore subjects and possible career choices which you may not have had the opportunity to study at school.
Our courses are designed to give you a whole new learning experience which is different from your school learning. We aim to help you develop new skills relevant to future employment in the wider world and to give you the opportunity to progress to Further or Higher Education, so that you achieve your ambitions.
We work closely with local authorities across the region, including Renfrewshire Council, Inverclyde Council, West Dunbartonshire Council, East Renfrewshire Council and Argyll & Bute Council.
If you wish to apply for our Schools Vocational Programme you must apply through your school.
