Student Profile Youth Training and Development Centre, Newbridge Uri McCormick I studied Employability Skills at level 3 for one year and Employment Skills level 4 for a further year. Two years study in total. I enjoyed everything about the course. I really enjoyed engineering. Personal effectiveness helped me personally. Computers also helped me as I use them in the garage doing diagnostics. Getting my own toolbox was the best thing of all. After seeing the lads in Finlay’s (where I did my work experience) I wondered if I would ever have my own toolbox and now I have.
