Why choose care, social care and health?
If you have a passion to help and support others, the care, health and social care sector is extremely rewarding.
It is one of the biggest sectors, which can lead to fantastic job opportunities. We have close ties with National Health Service (NHS) Highland, local authorities and voluntary and private organisations across the region.
We have a range of courses, that begin at entry level, with modern apprenticeships and degrees that prepare you for the workplace – including collaborative working practices that employers increasingly need. Our friendly staff encourage and support you to progress through the qualifications.
In many of our courses, you’ll undertake work experience, in a variety of settings, where you can apply what you have learnt in the classroom. We also provide simulated environments in college to enhance practical experiences.
If you’re interested in the care, health and social care profession, then we’d love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have; you can speak directly to one of the course team by completing the enquiry form on the care, social care and health pages.
