THE COLLEGE HAS A MAJOR ROLE TO PLAY IN MEETING
THE VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING NEEDS IN THE
NORTH EAST OF SCOTLAND. DID YOU KNOW THAT OVER
ONE THIRD OF ALL YOUNG PEOPLE IN ABERDEEN AND
ABERDEENSHIRE COME TO THE COLLEGE TO STUDY WHEN
THEY LEAVE SCHOOL?
We recruit over 7,000 full-time students each year across a
wide range of subject areas and a further 14,000 students enrol
on part-time and distance learning courses.
Since the merger a lot has happened – much behind the scenes –
but what does it mean for our students?
Principal of North East Scotland College, Rob Wallen, explained:
“Before we merged we agreed on a shared vision for the merged
College -- our vision for the future was of a College where lives can
be transformed and ambitions realised through:
• inspirational teaching
• high-quality services and facilities; and
• flexible and accessible courses responsive to the needs of
both employers and the communities that we serve.
“That shared ambition has been important over the past year as
we have undertaken the difficult work of bringing the organisations
together.”
One of the main aims of the merger was to ensure that students,
regardless of which campus they chose to study at, had the same
standard of learning resources, lecturers, equipment, leisure
facilities and catering.
And NESCol is certainly living up to this aim. The College could

NESCOL STUDENTS
WERE RECENTLY GIVEN
THE OPPORTUNITY TO
GAIN INSPIRATION FROM
A RECORD BREAKING
CYCLIST AND A FILM
DIRECTOR.
‘Making it Happen’ was a special event organized by Business
Gateway Aberdeen City and Shire. It saw cyclist and author
Mark Beaumont, and Moray-based film director and former
NESCol student Tom Duncan share their experiences and
business advice with over 200 students from NESCol’s
Fraserburgh Campus.
The aim of the event was to inspire students and budding
entrepreneurs; to show them that a good idea is the starting
block to success – and that hard work, determination and self-
belief will help them achieve their goals.
Mark Beaumont, who undertook an 18,000 mile record-breaking
round the world cycle as well as many other adventures, said:
“A successful career starts with pursuing what you are
passionate about. Enterprise is all about making ‘real choices’
and creating your own success. Events like ‘Making it Happen’
are pivotal in inspiring people to believe in themselves and I am
delighted to have been involved.”
Students in Aberdeen were also offered the opportunity to listen
to Mark speak at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre
– alongside a host of other inspirational entrepreneurs.
John Davidson, Head of the School of Creative Industries,
Computing and Business Enterprise at NESCol said:
“We were delighted to host such an inspirational event that
encouraged our students to consider starting their own business
as a fulfilling and enriching way to make a living once they have
completed their studies.”

MAs come in all shapes and sizes and typically last from two to
four years depending upon the chosen apprenticeship and ability
of the apprentice.
This increasingly popular career pathway is an alternative to
full-time study – a way of acquiring new skills and improving job
prospects whilst getting paid.
Modern Apprenticeships are great for employers as well - helping
businesses build a stronger, more confident workforce with greater
skills. Many Modern Apprentices move on to senior management
positions within organisations!
Our MA programme is one of the largest in Scotland, with over 500
apprenticeships in place across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire in the
automotive, engineering, hairdressing and maritime sectors.

Funding from government
The Scottish Government via Skills Development Scotland (SDS) will meet the cost of Modern Apprenticeships college-based training, so
there’s no cost to the trainee or the company to learn new skills at college.
The funding provided covers the direct cost of course fees, whilst the employer supports college attendance by employing the trainee
full–time. This mechanism ensures everyone benefits by enhancing the employee skills whilst improving productivity and confidence in the
workplace.
CASE STUDY
Rachael Buchan from Peterhead is currently employed as a
Bench Technician for Equalizer International – a designer and
supplier of mechanical and hydraulic flange maintenance tools,
based in Aberdeen.
She is currently working towards the Level 3 Mechanical
Engineering apprenticeship, spending one day of her working week
at NESCol to study for her National Certificate (NC) qualification.
On average this type of apprenticeship is completed within a four
year period but this varies from employer to employer.
After leaving school, Rachael (17) enrolled on the full-time
Performing Engineering Operations (PEO) Mechanical Engineering
Level 2 course at College. Here she became aware of the Modern
Apprenticeship programme as an alternative route to enter the
engineering sector – one which would enable her to continue with
her studies whilst working and earning a salary.
The apprenticeship opportunity at Equalizer was promoted at the
College and Rachael submitted her CV. She was offered the position
after a successful interview and hasn’t looked back since.
She said:

Cast Study:
Magdalena Drabik
Magdalena Drabik was inspired to study Childcare at North East
Scotland College after helping her mother look after groups of
children in her home country, Poland.
She said of the College: “It has a great atmosphere, friendly and
helpful lecturers and a wide range of qualifications on offer.”
Magdalena studied the SCQF Level 4 Childcare course and went on
to secure a role at a local pre-school and infant nursery.
She spoke of her fondest memory during her time here:
“One of the best days was when we all went to Castle Fraser, and
invited a group of pre-school children to come along. We organised
lots of different activities like face painting and games - it was great!”
Magdalena’s future goal is to build on her existing experience in
looking after children, and eventually go to university in Aberdeen to
complete a degree in childcare.ISSUE 3, JANUARY 2015
