Everything the Music departament at NWRC had on offered sounded appealing and was the obvious next step for me after my GCSEs.Ben McDermott (Music) -
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!Stephen McAteer (Limavady)
