I enjoyed studying in CCL and loved the course. The course modules were very good and helped me at my workplace. I got a job while I was in the college in The Park Nursing Home. I really enjoy it and always use the information provided on the course to deal with different situations. All the tutors and other staff were very helpful. They were always there to help me and others. It was lovely to be a part of CCL and I always recommend it to my colleagues and other girls coming for work experience in The Park.
