West Lothian College is a provider of further education based in Livingston, West Lothian since 2001. The College is a provider of a range of courses focused on developing skills for employment, to help students in their future career or to enhance current career prospects for those who are already working. The College has five Skills Centres of Excellence, the Skills Centre, the Access Centre, the Creative Centre, the Business Partnership Centre and the Wellbeing Centre, covering full-time and part-time vocational subjects. The College is designed to ensure that students can plan their progression. This can be achieved either at the college or at one of many partner universities, with which the college has established articulation links. The College currently serves approximately 8,000 learners on a full-time, part-time and distance learning basis across a number of sectors. We run a variety of full-time courses for students who need specific additional support. The aim of these courses is to increase the self-confidence and independence of the young people concerned. Where possible we encourage students to progress on to a vocational course or into employment or voluntary work. Students who have attended local schools will have the opportunity to come to College on a school link course before applying for a full time course but applications are welcome from anyone who feels these supported courses would be right for them.
