The growth of the College in the last decade has been phenomenal, and the consequent addition of Hannah House, formerly the management training HQ of Marks and Spencer PLC, ensures that our students have a spacious and versatile learning environment.

Hannah House is home to a new library and learning resource centre, a thirty terminal internet cafe which boosts the college internet access to over 100 terminals, a subsidised restaurant, many more classrooms and, significantly, a new language school will allow the College to recruit students from countries whose citizens are not native speakers of English, by providing language training that can either be taken in advance of a degree programme or simultaneously.

With the twin sites being only a short walk apart it is easy for staff and students to move from one building to another, and with the contribution of the social, leisure and sporting facilities at International Students House and the residential accommodation of the London Hostel Association, the College is now able to offer its students an authentic inner-city 'on-campus' experience.

The Courses

All courses follow the requirements of the relevant UK examination authorities and lead to qualifications awarded by professional bodies or degrees awarded by British Universities. Each course has been carefully selected for its relevance to commerce and industry and for its international recognition as evidence of professional competence.

The Teaching

Students entering the College enjoy every practical incentive to succeed. WLC is staffed by tutors of the highest quality and all students have access to an impressive range of specialist teaching aids including audio-visual equipment and modern computer facilities. Lecturers are chosen not just for their technical skills but also for their ability to impart their knowledge to others. They are entertaining and friendly, and always do their best to ensure that the course is as enjoyable as possible. In such a progressive environment students discover a new interest in learning, and new outlets for their natural potential.

The Student Facilities

With the addition of Hannah House the College now has twenty air-conditioned classrooms complete with whiteboards and digital projectors (which are linked to the College computer network), two computer rooms equipped with the latest flat-screen technology, an extensive library with full time librarian, language lab and computer terminals for electronic learning, an internet cafe, a subsidised restaurant and, on the top floor of Parliament House, a student services and resource centre with private-study facilities and student common room.

The Students

With over 1000 new students each year, mostly aged between 18 and 25, from over 100 countries around the world, West London College is a truly international environment.
