    NWRC helped prepare me for University. My science course led on to a degree in Dietetics and then a PhD. I am now a lecturer in Dietetics at Ulster University, Coleraine.

    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!
