Skills aren’t just important for finding a job, they are essential for life in general. At City College, we appreciate not everyone has the same opportunity to develop certain skills which is why we have spent years designing and delivering courses to give everyone that chance.
Why employability and life skills
We recognise how quickly our world can change and our staff are committed to helping everyone to make the most of the opportunities available thanks to developments in technology. Our courses are designed to build confidence and encourage resilience, and with our support, you can get the job you want and live the life you want.
From programmes delivered by the King’s Trust to a short course to boost digital literacy, City College can help you to live your best life.
