Industry context in the North West
Sectors associated with the region include aerospace and advanced manufacturing, nuclear, chemicals and process industries, and large construction and infrastructure projects.
Trades colleges often teach
Engineering, electrical, mechanical maintenance, construction and building services trades are all relevant.
Colleges set their own requirements, so the same trade may be taught differently from one college to the next.
What to check before you apply
Distances between colleges can be large outside the cities. Check the campus location, not just the college name, before applying.
England has no single legal requirement to hold a teaching qualification before you start. Many colleges support new staff to gain one after appointment. See our guide to teaching qualifications.
