belfast met
Belfast Met is the largest Further and Higher Education College in Northern
Ireland and one of the largest in the UK. We have developed a dynamic new
curriculum which mirrors the priority growth areas identified for Northern
Ireland as this is where future jobs will be created. Through our partnerships
with industry, we constantly adapt our curriculum to meet the skill demands of
our economy. We provide a unique breadth of education and training at every
level and have designed a portfolio of courses to address a variety of skill
needs – from apprenticeship and Level 1 courses, to those undertaking degrees
and post-graduate study. Coupled with this is our commitment to ensuring that
our students have access to opportunities which will enhance their employability
and job-ready skills. Our focus for the future is to support the development of
Belfast by providing education, training and skills development to enhance
individual, community and economic prosperity. Over the next three years we will
sustain and improve our responsiveness to learners, employers and communities.
The College has already built an excellent reputation with employers for
offering relevant, high quality learning. We will build on this by focusing on
developing long-term mutually beneficial partnerships and becoming recognised as
an expert in key and emerging growth areas. Working in partnership, we will
increase participation, progression, attainment and skill levels of all our
students.
