Welcome to Careers with Deeside College

"Deeside College is an outstanding education success story, not just in North East Wales, but for the whole of Wales and beyond. It is a pleasure to record my congratulations on its latest success in being one of the first colleges in the whole of the UK to have such an unqualified endorsement of its work-based learning and further education provision. Now that we have received the Webb Report on the future of FE in Wales it is ever more imperative for all our FE colleges to study how Deeside College carries out its vocational education mission so very successfully."
