Gateshead College operates a National Rail Academy and delivers publicly funded education and training, leading to NVQ qualifications in rail engineering. The College is seeking to procure specialist training and services from a National Skills Academy for Rail (NSAR) accredited Supplier who will work in partnership with the College to train and qualify new entrants to the rail industry, providing a pathway to employment.
