Agriculture

Job opportunities within this area are becoming increasingly important as they help us to look after our environment and manage our habitats. At Bridgend College, you will be taught by industry experts and have first-hand experience on farms. Our courses have a practical focus and include looking after sheep, pigs and cattle. We also work closely with many industry partners to give students opportunities to get involved with woodland management and wildlife conservation.

For these courses, we can provide in-class support for fluent Welsh speakers and learners from our dedicated Welsh Language Support Officer.
