The University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) has announced a partnership with an offshore specialist aimed at increasing the number of people working in the subsea industry.

Drift Offshore and UHI North, West and Hebrides are to deliver a course on remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and subsea equipment at UHI's Fort William campus on Loch Linnhe.

The company, which supports offshore industries like renewables, said there was a global shortage of workers in the sector.

UHI North, West and Hebrides described the new partnership as a "powerful collaboration".
