Building industry connections beyond the classroom 🏛️🤝

Students across our Law and Criminology courses recently welcomed the Northumbria Violence Reduction Unit as part of an exciting live brief project.

The partnership was created to help learners gain valuable industry insight and real-world experience in a sector where traditional work placements can be difficult to access.

Throughout the project, students will work with professionals from the VRU and other partner organisations, developing knowledge, employability skills and a deeper understanding of careers within the justice and criminology sector.

They'll also have the opportunity to complete VRU Ambassador training and showcase their work at a professional poster exhibition later this year.

A huge thank you to Steven Hume, the wider VRU team and everyone at the Northumbria Police and the Northumbria Police and Crime Commissioner's Office for supporting our learners and helping create these fantastic opportunities.

Things were heating up at Newcastle College this week! 🔥🚒

Our Sport and Uniformed Public Services students swapped the classroom for some hands-on fire safety training, putting their skills to the test with industry expert Simon Cataldo from Cataldo Training Ltd.

From handling fire hoses to learning how to safely use fire blankets and CO₂ extinguishers, students got stuck into two days of practical training designed to build confidence and develop valuable skills for their future careers!

Newcastle College 🤝 Pablo Eggsgobao 🔥🎨

Designs created by our students are now brightening up the fencing opposite the Newcastle favourite, celebrating everything from local landmarks and Geordie culture to plenty of black and white 🖤🤍

Created as part of our Future Heritage project, it’s another brilliant opportunity for our students to see their work leave the classroom and become part of the city that inspired it.

From catwalks to city streets - our students are making their mark! 👏
