South West College has been granted planning permission for the development of a new College Campus in Enniskillen.
The £24.6 million pound investment will create a modern college with state of the art facilities and technology.
The new campus will be based on the site of the old Erne Hospital, with a capacity for 7000 full-time and part-time students.
The Chief Executive and Senior Responsible Office for the College, Malachy McAleer has said it's "a fantastic project and one that will be of enormous benefit to students in the South West Region and beyond".
The plans will see a major advancement for the Northern Ireland Construction industry, by developing a new building of this scale to an environmental and energy standard entitled PassivHaus Premium.
This will be the first non-domestic building to achieve this status globally, ranking it with prestigious buildings such as the Apple Campus 2 in terms of innovation and design.
