    This course has been an exciting and challenging journey that allowed me to discover my love of design. The excellent tutors opened my eyes to new materials, techniques and media which has helped me develop my illustration and digital skills. I’ve now decided to study Game Design at university.

    I wanted better job opportunities and the Access course gave me the pathway towards the career I’ve always dreamed of. It was quite daunting returning to college but I found all the staff at Strabane campus really helpful and friendly. They made the experience so enjoyable.
