Further Education Graduates Receive Unique Awards |
|
The achievements of Northern Regional College’s further education students have been recognised at a graduation ceremony at the Clarion Hotel, Carrickfergus. The graduation ceremony is particularly special this year as for the first time NRC presented ‘Shooting Star’ awards to students who have achieved exceptional results during their course. Of the 500 students graduating from NRC’s Further Education courses, 11 were awarded a ‘Shooting Star’, recognising the dedication shown to their studies and the distinctions they gained during the year from lecturers. Speaking at the Northern Regional College Further Education graduation ceremony Director Trevor Neilands congratulated all students on achieving their personal educational goals and in particular highlighted the success of those who had earned the first Shooting Star Awards.“At Northern Regional College we encourage all students to achieve their personal best and when we looked across the grades achieved by particular students’ staff felt it was right to recognize their exceptional efforts. The citations written by the tutors which you have heard highlights their dedication to their studies, their energy and enthusiasm, their class contribution and their willingness to work with their tutors. Many have now progressed to Higher Education within the Northern Regional College, have begun university courses or entered the world of work. We wish all our students every success.” |
Addressing guests and students at the graduation ceremony was guest speaker, Helen McKenna, from Clarity Business Education, who congratulated all the students for their hard work during their further education courses.
