“I needed to move on from my career as a chef and my interest in computing led me to Stow’s HND Networking & Internetworking Technology course. When researching, I considered a few colleges and found just what I was looking for. One of the HND’s advantages is that it opens up various possibilities. I can either go to university - I already have two conditional offers of places - or I can choose from a number of job options.”
