It should be noted that LCBT does not currently have facilities for students to eat within the college on their lunch breaks. However as we are located in the heart of the West-End there are several cafes and shops where students can purchase reasonably priced food and drink.

Learning in the work place

These are employer-led programmes and your employer's consent is required.  Your eligibility can depend on your age and prior qualifications.  Full information can be provided upon application.

LCBT Certificated courses, may require previous experience or qualifications – please see individual course information for further details.  Where prior qualifications are required, you will need to produce a certificate.
