South Yorkshire IoT Launch

South Yorkshire IoT Launch:

Backed by £12 million in funding from the Department for Education, the South Yorkshire Institute of Technology (IoT) includes University Campus Doncaster as the lead for the group, partnered with AMRC Training Centre, Sheffield Hallam University and Barnsley College.

The establishment of the IoT in Doncaster marks a significant milestone for the city, bringing high-quality, higher-level technical education and training back to the region. Specialising in Higher Technical Qualifications (HTQs), professional training and higher apprenticeships the new facilities and courses will be dedicated to widening opportunities in higher education by offering flexible and affordable qualifications to adults of all ages and local employers committed to strengthening their workforce and addressing the lack of diversity in some parts of the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) sector.

The IoT will be open for tours and our staff will be on hand to provide demonstrations of our new equipment and answer any questions you may have about the IoT and how we can work with you and your workforce.
