Sir Titus Salt’s vision for Saltaire always included progressive
vocational education. This was the case from 1868, we became
Shipley College in 1969, and we have continued to adapt our
offer, catering to the needs of the people and the businesses
of the Bradford region.

HOW THIS GUIDE WORKS
This 2023/24 Part Time Course Guide will outline the many
courses we have available for adults. They are broadly split
into ‘qualifications’ and ‘lifestyle and leisure’.
Qualifications courses are linked to a current or future job role.
We are a big part of the Local Skills Improvement Plan, so have
an array of courses that link to what we know local employers
are looking for, in areas we know are growing (see page 9).

musical instrument, getting into cake decorating, or mastering
a new language - and, we have gift cards available if you would
like to give any of those to a loved one!
