RGC
Online, the web-based tech education programme from Robert Gordon’s College,
will host a Virtual Open Event for prospective students across Scotland on
February 20.
Championing
a collaborative approach from within its global alumni network, Robert Gordon’s
College has worked alongside Robert Gordon University and Massachusetts
Institute of Technology (MIT), to develop the digital education platform, which
offers SQA accredited Higher Computing Science in addition to Higher
Applications of Mathematics.
RGC
Online offers additional tech-focused modules, designed to equip young people
with the skills required for future roles in the technology sector. Modules
include: Artificial Intelligence, Data Science and Machine Learning, Cyber
Security, Game Design, and Entrepreneurship.
Now into its second year, RGC Online has been a ground-breaking success as
evidenced by an 100% A/B pass rate in last year’s SQA exams for Higher
Computing Science.
Elsewhere,
RGC Online’s Game Design diploma module was crowned “Best Educational
Programme” at the 2023 Scottish Games Awards.
Jess
Power, Head of RGC Online, said: "Our virtual open event is a chance to
have a look at the possibilities that await in the world of technology. The
future is filled with opportunity, and RGC Online provides students with the
skills required to be the true innovators of tomorrow.”
