It’s a really exciting time to join USP College...
The college was formed in 2017 as a result of a merger between Palmers College (Grays) and Seevic College (Benfleet) and the last 12 months has been a period of very positive change, growth and investment.
We now provide career-focused learning to around 4,000 students across the Palmers and Seevic campuses, helping each of them develop the real skills needed by businesses as well as achieving their formal qualifications. Our students study a variety of courses including including A-Levels, Professional Qualifications, Apprenticeships, Foundation Learning, Higher Education and courses for Adults.
And not only do we help all of our students reach their full potential, we will do the same with you...
