During my time at NWRC Limavady, I felt nothing but accepted, welcomed and encouraged. The tutors push you to achieve at the highest level.Jack McDonald (Art & Design) -
It made sense for me to study in an area where I could work alongside my studies. There is a huge benefit to the HLA because you can study locally, there’s no course fees and you learn about the industry while you’re working. There are so many employment opportunities!Roberta Deehan (HLA in Hospitality and Tourism Management)
