Sector: Public Sector
Organisation statement:
We carry out work to advance education and learning, primarily further and higher education. We also provide training in skills of all kinds and to individuals, community groups and local businesses. This includes developing appropriate courses and learning materials, delivering these courses as well as assessing students if required. We are involved in the advancement of citizenship, community development, wellbeing, social inclusion and digital inclusion. This is done by providing the people of Shetland with the skills, confidence and knowledge to contribute, as well as supporting them to be more involved in their communities, find employment or change careers. This work contributes to preventing and relieving poverty. We collaborate with public bodies and other academic partners of UHI, to advance and support services, strategies, plans and projects to meet the needs of Shetland's population and environment, which includes the advancement of arts, heritage, culture, environmental protection or improvement and science.
