Fantastic opportunities are on offer for school leavers and new students to snap up a place on a cutting edge, full-time course at Forth Valley College starting in August 2023, at all three of our campuses in Alloa, Falkirk, and Stirling.  

The College has limited places still available in courses across all three teaching departments: Care, Sport, Business and Communities; Creative, Digital and Leisure Industries; and STEM and Construction. 

All campuses are easily accessible whether travelling by public transport, bike, car, or on foot. 

You could be a school leaver eager to push on and start your career or someone who is returning to education keen to embark on a new path. If you are, then Forth Valley College wants to hear from you. 

If you want to study science or engineering at the Falkirk Campus, you’ll be pleased to know that Forth Valley College is one of Scotland’s leading STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) providers and strategically linked to the Grangemouth strip, with numerous strong industry links.  

The STEM and Construction Department has also created state-of-the-art training facilities which allows FVC to offer innovative partnership degree programmes in this field linked to the University of Strathclyde, Heriot-Watt University and the University of Stirling. The College also provides training to more than 1000 Modern Apprentices (MAs) every year, in everything from engineering to construction. 

Care, Sport, Business and Communities courses can also be found at the Falkirk Campus – opened in 2020 – which is arguably one of the best learning facilities to be found anywhere in Scotland, and only a short distance from Edinburgh and Glasgow. 

Computing courses are another area of expertise at the Falkirk and Alloa Campuses and the skills students can learn in this area will put them at the forefront of the cyber security sector in the UK for years to come. 

At the Stirling Campus, you could serve up a new career for yourself by applying for a course in Hospitality as The Gallery Training Restaurant - which is open to the public – educates the next generation of chefs and front of house staff.  

Creative, Digital and Leisure Industries are also a big focus at Stirling and the BA Degrees in Art and Design and Digital Media, in partnership with the University of Stirling, are developing respected reputations across the country. 

Business courses are also a speciality at the Alloa Campus which features simulated office spaces. FVC is confident it has exactly what you are looking for as you look to launch your career path or enhance your existing skills.
