The College's approach to learning reflects our rural locality, the local economy and the changing patterns of lifestyles. As a major employer and a dynamic rural learning institution, we have strongly embraced the 'digital' revolution s and its many forms are fast becoming the basis of our organisation’s operations and academic delivery.
