The College is an inclusive institution aiming to meet the employer and employee needs
of local, national and international businesses. This may be as an individual provider or
as part of a consortium (i.e. Regional) and in either case the ethos is one of providing
inspirational, excellent and innovative training coupled with excellent customer service.
The College currently works with an extensive range of stakeholders ensuring
that the curriculum offered to students is relevant and fi t-for-purpose. These key
stakeholders include regional college partners, other Scottish colleges, Scottish Funding
Council, Skills Development Scotland, Scottish Development International, Scottish
Enterprise, Community Planning Partnerships, Glasgow City Council and other relevant
organisations.
The business planning process cycle begins with the interpretation of Labour Market
Information, and the production of the Colleges Strategic priorities for business planning,
agreed by ELT and The Board of Management. This process will be informed by the
Regional Strategy for Glasgow, The Regional Outcome Agreement and Scottish
Government key strategic drivers. From this information the College summarises
key employer engagement drivers, which inform the sector offer which is then
detailed in operational planning.
In addition to bespoke training needs analysis, employer feedback is an
integral part of the process and undertaken on a course outcome or
annual basis.
The College's ethos is for all staff involved with employer related
provision to support high quality professional and technical
training in all delivery environments, maintain high standards
in professional working relationships and strive for the
highest customer satisfaction levels.
