A bit ABOUT us. --> --> --> --> --> Education with Employment Edge. Its what we do. Gateshead College has been around since the 1940s and from then to today we've been helping people get the skills and qualifications they need to get on in work and life.
It's a special place to work and learn, we care about each other, are passionate about what we do and are proud of what our students achieve. We're celebrating 80 years since we became Gateshead Technical College. We're the place to get you job ready. You'll get everything you need to get you where you want to go.
University, first job, next job, promotion – our courses, qualifications, inspiration and support will get you there. You'll get access to the most employable talent around and, if it's a struggle finding, developing or attracting people with the skills you need, we'll work with you to find a solution.
We're a good neighbour, here to work hand in hand with individuals and organisations in our community to make it better for everyone. Our purpose, values and strategic plan were developed with the people who make up our community – our students, staff and partners.
