Vocational

If you’re looking for a more hands on approach to learning, our vocational courses could be exactly what you’re looking for. We offer both NVQ and BTEC courses in a range of subjects, from construction and hospitality to business and public services. And that choice is backed by our results, as 15 out of 16 of our BTEC courses had a 100% pass rate in 2010.

Vocational study at Sunderland College also opens up a clear pathway to future study or employment as many of courses are linked to our further education provision or can make up part of an Apprenticeship framework, helping you earn while you learn.
