One of Skillset's core functions is to ensure that appropriate courses offered by Universities and Colleges meet the needs of industry. We aim to achieve this by finding out what employer and learner skills needs are and use this information to inform the improvement of existing and the development of new learning programmes and qualifications. We are working with education providers to ensure that essential learning and skills opportunities are available across the UK.

The North East team has recently set up an Education Focus Group to continue to develop and improve links between audio visual companies and learning providers in the region. Within the field of Further Education we are continuing to develop links with colleges that provide courses for young people aged 16 and above, adults, and professionals seeking specialist provision. In relation to Higher Education we work with Universities and Specialist Colleges which offer HND, Degree and Postgraduate courses aimed at higher level skills development. Education providers in the region are also engaging with the media industry, some with specific support from Skillset, to develop new two-year foundation degrees aimed at meeting industry needs.

For a more in-depth exploration of the wide range of courses and programmes offered in the North East, use the links on this page to investigate what is offered at each institution. Please note that the inclusion of a course/college in this listing does not constitute a recommendation.
