Welcome to Pitman Highland in Inverness

We serve Inverness and the Highlands and Islands, including rural communities, by offering training both in the centre and via distance learning (or a blend of the two!). We can operate extended hours in the evening and personal training reviews can be arranged for a Saturday morning on request. We have been working hard to keep the Highlands well trained for decades and work closely with the local job market to help us stay in tune with local needs.

Training for Individuals

Our training is available to complete in centre, at home, or at your workplace with the full support from our fantastic in centre team. Andrew, who is our Student Services Manager, will be on hand to help with any technical difficulties you may face and to show you how to use our Pitman Campus for online learning.  We have over 300 courses available on a wide range of subjects to choose from, such as our highly regarded Diplomas, a fantastic list of one or two day seminars and lots of individual modules ranging from basic to highly advanced.

You may be eligible for up to £200 funding with ITA Scotland contact us for more information or click here.

Corporate Training

We have added a new service for new and existing clients, adding a personal touch to our professional standard. You can now request a training consultant to visit your training manager, to discuss and assess the skills that are required, making it easier than ever to get your staff the training that they deserve. Whether for one individual or one hundred individuals, we will always offer the same level of attentive service. Our training can be tailored if required; especially if you are looking at our seminar packages.
