Member Colleges & Universities

We fully recognize the importance of the National Land Based College. It offers the land based industries a tremendous opportunity to input directly into qualifications that deliver the skills they need. Scotland’s Rural College is delighted to sit on the NLBC board as we understand and support the need for these kinds of close links between education and industry, indeed the goals of NLBC are closely aligned with the Scottish national strategy for land-based education and training which was coordinated by SRUC. Both have set out their ambitions that land-based colleges must engage more effectively with industry, schools and the wider community to ensure that the sector’s growing employment needs are met.
