College joins chamber of commerce

GOWER College Swansea have become a member of the South Wales Chamber of Commerce.

Over the last five years the college’s work-based learning programmes have gone from strength to strength, working closely with many businesses across the UK.

The growth of its business-to-business work has been a key factor in establishing itself as one of the leading colleges in Wales.

The college has developed strong partnerships with organisations including Tata Steel, FRF Motors and HMT Sancta Maria Hospital.

Boasting a membership of over 500 companies from within the region, the chamber provides a platform for the college to continue to form relationships with reputable businesses across Wales.

Stuart Davies, business development consultant at the college, said: “We pride ourselves on the support that we provide to employers in delivering their learning strategies.

“Given that we are working with so many Welsh businesses, joining a body as reputable as the South Wales Chamber of Commerce makes perfect sense.”

Heather Myers, chief executive of the South Wales Chamber of Commerce, added: “We are delighted to welcome Gower College Swansea to the Chamber of Commerce, and we look forward to supporting them with the amazing work they are doing in their region which will benefit the membership and introduce them to new markets and connections.”
