About New College Durham

New College Durham is one of the leading Further Education colleges in the North East and the UK. We focus on providing training and education that creates the best outcomes for our students, giving them the best support for a career in their chosen industry.


Offering courses from level 3 to level 7, New College Durham provides an extensive curriculum, attracting students from across the region and beyond. The college continues to work hard to ensure that the vision to provide first class learning and training for individuals, businesses and the community is embedded within the curriculum.


Recognised as financially ‘Outstanding’ for over a decade, the college continues to maintain its high standards and outstanding student experience while actively seeking growth and diversification in funding and opportunities to innovate.
As lead partner for the North East Institute of Technology (NEIoT), we work rigorously with key regional employers, partner FE colleges, and Newcastle University to offer a range of vocational courses, apprenticeships, T-Level and higher technical qualifications to develop skills that businesses really want.


Over the last three years, New College Durham has invested over £30 million into its campus facilities and teaching equipment, including £8m in its STEM centre, providing outstanding resources within the engineering, construction and digital sectors and most recently £5million in a state-of-the-art Multi Use Games Area. 


Here at New College Durham, we are recognised at a national level as a leading provider of apprenticeship training. The courses we offer include well-established curriculums in areas such as construction, engineering and digital, as well as more diverse sectors such as fire safety, dental nursing and human resources. Such provision helps ensure over 1,500 apprentices are in learning year on year all the while, meeting the needs of local and regional employers.
The college hosts the National Battery Training & Skills Academy, a facility created to support workers in battery technology. It is one of the first of its kind in the country and has been developed to provide training to the next generation of workers in the ever-developing battery industry. 


The college also offers an extensive portfolio of over 50 different higher education qualifications via the on-site University Centre. A host of higher education courses from level 4 to level 7 are designed, developed and maintained to meet the skills and academic needs of regional and national employers.


As well as working in partnership with the Open University to validate degrees and master’s qualifications, New College Durham recently achieved a significant milestone by being granted indefinite powers to award foundation degrees by the Office for Students.
