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) -
There’s such a friendly and social atmosphere at the college. My lecturers were extremely supportive and the facilities are first class.Leroy Grant (Barbering)
