Founded in 1961, the college has flourished to become a leading voice in green energy skills development to help tackle climate change and one of the main providers of learning and training across the South of Scotland.

The college offers programmes ranging from senior-phase school partnerships to higher education, with a range of courses, including business, computing, care, childcare, construction, creative industries, education, engineering, hairdressing, beauty and complementary therapies, health and social studies, hospitality and sports and recreation.

In 2008 their campus moved from Heathhall to its new main campus on the Crichton Estate, sitting nearby the University of Glasgow's and the University of the West of Scotland's satellite faculties in Dumfries.

This places Dumfries and Galloway College in the top 5 institutions in Scotland for student satisfaction.
