We have our origins in the rich history of technical education, introduced in the early 20th century. The technical schools of this time were designed to respond to the needs of the local community. Courses were vocational or technical incl​​uding science, art and technology.

SERC has been driven by pioneers of education such as Cecil Webb. These entrepreneurs and innovators set us on course and we have done them proud. Over 100 years we have helped thousands to join the workforce and build the NI economy​y.

Over the last 3 years alone SERC has progressed 14,125 people ​within the local workforce to a level 2 qualification and 9,423 to level 3 to 7, both representing 16% of the total working population in the South Eastern region.
