My time at NWRC gave me the confidence to open my own Beauty Salon. Now I'm a part-time lecturer for the College.Vanessa Canning (Hair & Beauty) -
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)
