NORTH West Regional College has earned the first ever Skills for Health Quality Mark in Northern Ireland thanks to their health & social care training which provides participants with essential qualifications for the workplace.
Skills for Health is the employer-led authority on work force development and is the UK Sector Skills Council for Health. Achievement of the quality mark recognises that the college is delivering training courses that meet the highest standards expected by health care employers.
It was awarded to NWRC for its Level 2 and 3 Diplomas and the ApprenticeshipsNI programme at the College.
Curriculum manager Helena McVeigh received the quality mark at a special ceremony in London last week from CEO of Skills for Health John Rogers. The college is one of the first 10 organisations across the UK to be awarded this recognition.
