Advanced Digital Academy at Gloucestershire College
At the heart of our Cheltenham Campus, a stone’s throw away from GCHQ and Cyber Park launching 2025, is our £3 million ADA: Advanced Digital Academy.
Take a look into ADA: Advanced Digital Academy
Named after Ada Lovelace, the world’s first computer programmer, our IT and cyber facility is the pinnacle of computing, forensic computing and cyber security training with cutting-edge facilities and the latest technology.
Kitted out with latest hardware and software – and looking pretty impressive too – students, apprentices and those already working in computing and cyber, have the optimal environment to learn and put theory into practice.
