The college enrols over 18,500 learners each year, employs 700 staff, and operates with an annual budget of c£47m.
The regional board is responsible for overseeing the business of the college, determining its strategic direction and fostering a safe environment in which the college’s vision is achieved and the potential of all learners is maximised.
