Become an MA Employer of Excellence

City of Glasgow College invites you to join our Modern Apprenticeship (MA) Employer of Excellence Programme.

Following the outstanding success of our pilot, we are delighted to offer this award to all of our employers who employ Modern Apprentices. 

This initiative celebrates and supports organisations that show exceptional commitment to apprenticeship development - raising standards, promoting best practice, and enhancing the experience for both employers and apprentices.
