Prospective Students
We think we have something to offer everyone. Many of our courses have been developed for on-line delivery so that you can study them wherever you live.
Others take advantage of our unique situation (Gaelic, traditional music, fine art) or the economic and industrial base in which we operate (Intro to Merchant Navy, Engineering, Renewable technologies).
If you already live in the islands, we can help you achieve qualifications that will allow you to start a career or a trade, or improve your professional development and promotion prospects. If you live elsewhere and are thinking of studying in the Outer Hebrides why not browse the Visit Hebrides website.
