Introduction

Colleges in Scotland are continuing to deliver world-class education and training to students of all backgrounds and ages in another challenging year of Covid-19 impact and economic turmoil. By unlocking the potential of individuals, colleges are providing the education and skills Scotland’s economy needs, strongly anchored in local communities, acting as powerhouses of regional networks.

There are 26 colleges in Scotland, from Shetland to Dumfries, the Western Isles to Dundee. The breadth of opportunity they provide includes retraining for new industries to tackle the climate emergency, upskilling and reskilling people already in work in digital health and care, hospitality and fintech, and providing further and higher education in thousands of subjects for students starting their college journey.

Colleges maximise local opportunities for students to gain the experience and qualifications they need while providing a unique scaffold of support for financial help, mental health support, and careers advice. When colleges thrive, Scotland thrives.
