The University is working in partnership with Coleg Gwent, Blaenau Gwent Council and UHOVI (Universities Heads of the Valleys Institute) to support the launch of The Blaenau Gwent Learning Zone. The new state-of-the art campus based at The Works site in Ebbw Vale will open its doors to the first intake of students in September 2012 and will offer an extensive range of A levels, vocational programmes and Higher Education courses.
The Learning Zone will combine excellent facilities with high quality teaching, advice and guidance to provide learning opportunities for people of all ages across Blaenau Gwent and the surrounding areas. Students will benefit from a range of brand new specialist resources and facilities including construction, science, technology, hair & beauty, performing arts, media and IT.
