About our IT & Administrative Studies Department  

The IT & Administrative Studies department at Bridgend College was awarded a grade 1 in our recent Estyn Inspection.  This means that the department is 'Good with outstanding features'

Bridgend College offers IT and Admin courses from Introductory Diploma to Extended Diploma to HND and Degree level, and allow students to study full-time or part-time around work and/or family commitments.

Many students progress within the IT & Administrative Studies Department at Bridgend College starting with a Level 2 course and leaving with a Level 6 qualification, and often return to College to update skills as industry standards develop.

The College is also a BCS Centre of Excellence which recognises the strategies put in place by the College to enable disabled students to complete IT courses such as ECDL. The College was thrilled to have recently been awarded the "British Computer Society Quality Mark for Accessibility".

Our IT and Admin courses are designed to prepare you for work in IT and Administrative roles with Administration students benefiting from training within a real working office called ‘Working Wonders' and IT students undertaking work placements with local companies.

Students also spend time looking at how IT and administrative systems are used in the real world with educational visits to BBC Studios, Disneyland Paris and Chelsea Football Club to name a few. Champions from industry are also invited in to share their experiences and knowledge with our students.

We currently offer the Welsh Baccalaureate accreditation with our Administration courses and levels 1, 2, and 3 IT courses.

Finally, the IT & Administrative Studies department consists of a team of highly qualified staff who are active practitioners in their field of expertise. This ensures that their knowledge is up to date and relevant.
