This Northampton College led project will provide a ‘digital academy’ at Northampton College’s Booth Lane campus, housed in a purpose-built 1,300 sqm new block.
The new facility will focus on developing and delivering key digital skill programmes (levels 1-3 and T-Levels) to provide a strong pipeline of digitally skilled students able to progress onto HE, Apprenticeships and into work. The college will engage with the Digital Institute of Technology at Bletchley Park at Milton Keynes and employer partners to develop a new digital curriculum.
