Coventry College was formed in August 2017 from a merger between

the City’s two leading colleges – City College Coventry and Henley

College Coventry.

Between us we have been delivering learning and training to employers,

young people and adults in Coventry since the early 1800's.

We benefit from modern facilities which include over a dozen workshops

that are furnished with state-of-the-art equipment.

We work closely with CITB who can advise you how you can use your CITB

levy to fund qualifications.

We employ 600 staff including teachers, trainers and assessors who are

skilled in their trade or professional field of delivery. All our staff are qualified

and complete regular staff training and professional updating as part of their

development programme.

Training is our business. It’s at the heart of our mission to improve the

skills of people and businesses and it’s what we focus all our attention on.

We are committed to working with all our employers and students to make
