The Lincolnshire Institute of Technology (IoT) is a collaboration between the University of Lincoln and Further Education providers across Greater Lincolnshire.
The IoT specialises in delivering high quality technical education across industries with a focus on Engineering, Digital, Automotive, Manufacturing, and Construction subjects, opening up opportunities for students to gain industry-relevant skills to overcome some of the key challenges facing the technical industries.
A multi-million-pound investment has been made to refurbish our oldest Grade II listed Gibney building to house the IoT.
It has been designed to replicate the latest progressive working environments and has been equipped with the latest IT hardware, computing, electrical engineering and automotive engineering equipment.
Level 4 and 5 qualifications are designed for specialist learning and are suitable for people currently working in, or wishing to enter into, technical and professional jobs, and/or managing and developing others.
A Level 4 and 5 qualification represents a greater understanding and a higher level of learning than that gained from secondary education level. It also acts as the bridge between Level 3 and 6 - helping those to progress to the next stage of education where they may not have had the qualifications previously to do so.
There is an increasing demand from employers for qualifications at this level in key sectors like automotive, engineering, digital, management, business and more - helping to plug the current skills gap in these areas.
Students studying at this level can often study part-time and continue with their current employment.
Enrolling employees on Level 4 and 5 course can also be a great way for employers to upskill their workforce benefiting both the company and their staff.
Companies that train staff at these levels may receive improved productivity, better adherence to quality standards, a workforce that can do a greater variety of work and an ability to respond effectively to change.
