About the Institute of Technology

Our multi-million-pound IoT (Institute of Technology) site sees the historic grade II-listed Stonebridge House into a state-of-the-art Engineering and Digital Skills hub. The IoT project has restored Stonebridge House back to its former glory by turning it in to a cutting-edge teaching and learning facility. The building is equipped with IT design studios, digital technology suites, and Engineering robotics facilities. IoTs specialise in delivering higher technical university-level education (at Levels 4 and 5) with a focus on STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects. At Grantham College, the Institute of Technology focuses on Engineering and Digital routes. Grantham College has a strong background in Engineering and welcomes the opportunity via the IoT to fill skills gaps in local industries. As the IoT will provide the latest innovative technologies to work with, the College is putting on many new Digital courses.

IoT courses at Grantham College include HNC/D Computing and Systems Development, Cloud Computing, Digital Technologies, Engineering (Manufacturing, Electrical, and Mechanical) courses and new apprenticeships in Automation and Controls, and Software Development.

Supporting Skills in Lincolnshire

The Institutes of Technology (IOT) are collaborations between colleges, universities and employers and have been formed across England to enhance the career and employment chances of young people and adults. They focus on the specific technical skills required to bridge the skills gaps in our local area. IoTs provide employers with a skilled workforce and students with a clear route to technical employment. Grantham College is a member of the consortium of further and higher education providers, led by the University of Lincoln that will bring substantial capital funding to our region with the Lincolnshire Institute of Technology (#LIoT).
