The best bit about the college is the tutors. All of them have been amazing, I wouldn’t have achieved what I have if it weren’t for all of them. If you want to study here, do it! Once I finish my course, I already have a job lined up. I’d like to thank the motor vehicle department for all their ongoing support throughout my three years here.Aaron – Level 3 Vehicle Maintenance and Repair
