Print PagePrint PageSend to friendSend to friend

TowerSkills and our Financial Services training division reside in the award winning George Green Building, formerly George Green School in East India Dock Road, Poplar.  In 2009 the listed Victorian facility won a RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) award for its "inspirational" design and innovative style of building which combines modern with 19th century architecture, following a £5million refurbishment.
