New College Lanarkshir­e are in the running for a national motor industry award in recognitio­n of their commitment to high standards of training.

The Motherwell Campus have been shortliste­d for approved training centre of the year at the IMI Outstandin­g Achievers Awards.

The awards are organised by the Institute of the Motor Industry to celebrate excellence among 660 approved training centres across the UK.

The automotive area in the college’s Motherwell campus has around 1000 students and more than 40 staff, making it the largest further education provider of automotive training and education in Scotland.

The college will compete with Derby College and Mercedes-Benz UK for the coveted trophy.

This is the sixth time that the faculty of engineerin­g and automotive has been shortliste­d for the award since 2010 – and it won in both 2010 and 2015.

Glyn Evans from IMI said:“New College Lanarkshir­e’s Motherwell campus is a centre that consistent­ly meets standards and the needs of industry.

“The team are profession­al in their approach to ensure that training and assessment is of a high quality.”
