“If it wasn’t for some of the skills that I learned in Sallynoggin College I don’t think I could have got the jobs that I did. I have seen so many countries around the world through my work. Overall I would say if it wasn’t for doing the Travel & Tourism Course in Sallynoggin I wouldn’t be where I am today.”
