SRUC and Borders College launch joint land-based prospectus

SRUC and Borders College are proud to present a joint prospectus on the land-based sectors in the south of Scotland.

The two institutions are committed to establishing clear pathways of provision for the approximately 4,500 new employees being predicted for the Land-based industry in the south of Scotland. There is a clear requirement for access to flexible, high-level short course training and practise-based innovation, particularly those requiring upskilling who are currently in the sector.

We see this joint prospectus as a first step in identifying areas for new joint course development, with a focus on modes of delivery and levels of provision which are not serviced within the region and thus either require learners to move out of the region or forgo career progression.

Both Borders College and SRUC offer a wider range of courses within and outside of the Borders region - you can view the prospectus here.
