“ I would definitely recommend this course to others , you really don ’ t realise the amount of skills and knowledge that you are actually picking up at the time . You ’ re never too old to learn something new !”
Deborah Dey Studied for a career as a Graphic Designer
I would have loved to have studied art when I left school , but it wasn ’ t to be at that time . At 48 , I thought if I don ’ t go to college now , I ’ ll never do it ! I chose the NC : Graphic Design / New Media course as it covered a variety of subjects that I was interested in .
All the different age groups in the class got along so well and I couldn ’ t wait to return to study HNC and then HND : Visual Communication . It was hard work when you had a few different design projects to work on at the same time and deadlines to keep , but it was fun too .
The lecturers were great and were always encouraging me to push myself out of my comfort zone and to believe in myself and my abilities .
