Shipley College Exhibition Building

The Saltaire Institute, hosted in our historic Salt and Exhibition Buildings, is a one-stop shop for adult students looking to get qualifications to boost the career they are in, or switch to a new career path entirely. 

For generations, ‘traditional night-school’ has been a successful route for people looking to change direction, learn in-demand skills, make new friends and balance their study time with work or family commitments. 

We offer a range of in-demand qualifications, in sectors that are growing in our region. Whatever course you choose, you’ll join us for early evening classes, with like minded learners.

Is now YOUR time? 

 

Shipley College Salt Rock Cafe

Giving you the best chance to succeed

Firstly - we know that after a day working or looking after your family, you may well need to refuel before your class. This is why our subsidised onsite café is kept open by our friendly team, serving hot and cold food and drinks, on Saltaire Institute evenings. 

Of course there are many other benefits besides - by becoming part of the Saltaire Institute community, you will:

  • Benefit from masterclasses from regional employers, learning from current industry experts
  • Work with inspirational and highly qualified teachers that will support you every step of the way
  • Access all of the careers advice, pastoral support and  work experience services that our daytime students can access
  • Meet new people with similar goals and interests 
  • Make professional connections

 

If you feel that it is time for a change, and that it’s time that you put yourself first - then please consider the Saltaire Institute as your next step on your journey to a new career.
