The United Colleges Group<\/a> has acquired the site of the Olympic Office Centre in Wembley, which will be used to develop a new, innovative state-of-the-art education facility<\/h2>\n

The education facility will bring new jobs to Wembley and the wider Brent area and will offer opportunities to young people and adults of all ages to improve their skills, advance their careers, and gain valuable experience.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 facility will focus on green skills,<\/a> including engineering and the built environment<\/a>. The campus development will also offer classes in digital technology, computing and health and social care.<\/p>\n

Students with supported learning requirements and those for whom English is a second language will also find themselves with a wide range of opportunities to choose from.<\/p>\n

The site is situated in the heart of Wembley and is currently at stage one of development. The United Colleges group looks forward to working with local authority partners in Brent to make this forward-thinking and ambitious plan a reality.<\/p>\n

The United Colleges Group is proud to be bringing this brand-new development to the local area and reaffirms its commitment to playing a full, active, and productive part in the Brent area and the city as a whole.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur new site will bring more education, training, and skills opportunities<\/a> for the residents of Brent and the wider London community and will provide the community with an important place to work and learn.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith its focus on green skills and emerging technologies, we are also pleased to say that our new location will enable us not just to provide a boost to the present generation but will do so for many generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
