Nurturing Talent in the North East – North East Institute of Technology

Institutes of Technology (IoTs) are regional networks of education providers and industry partners collaborating to offer flexible, world-class technical education. The North East Institute of Technology (NEIoT), a partnership between Further Education colleges, higher education institutions such as Newcastle University, and employers has been running since 2020 and focuses on higher level technical education in the digital, advanced manufacturing, engineering and constructions sectors to meet local skills demand.

The Institute has delivered a diverse range of courses for learners of all backgrounds and experience levels, offering exciting career paths regionally. Furthermore, it provides experienced professionals with opportunities to reskill and switch their career direction.

The Department for Education has invested £12 million in capital and equipment for the Institute. Through employer advisory boards involving employers and education providers, courses are developed collaboratively to address skill gaps. Local businesses can influence and benefit from available courses.
