My course has helped ignite my passion for Musical Theatre and gave me the confidence to follow my dreams!Eoin Callaghan (Performing Arts) -
I studied the OCN Level 2 Award in Bakery & Patisserie. My course was delivered in the College's kitchens. There was a sense of community and a warm relaxing atmosphere throughout. If I was to describe my experience in 3 words it would be fun, exciting and therapeutic!Stephen McAteer (Limavady)
