Barry studied the AVCE in ICT for 2 years full-time at the Downpatrick Campus.
He then went on to study the HNC in ICT on part-time basis and is now a partner in his own IT business.
Barry says "Having been both a student and an employee of the College, I gained the theory and hands-on approach needed to start up my own technology solutions company. It is important to get qualifications and relevant experience before starting up a business, as it can be a very daunting task. Through the AVCE and HNC in Information Technology studies at the College I was given both the theory and practical experience which I feel is not always available in schools."
