The graduation ceremonies recognised and honoured the hard work and dedication of over 500 eligible graduates with a congregation of over 600 in attendance. This was the first graduation attended by South West College’s new Principal and Chief Executive, Celine McCartan.
Congratulating students on their achievements, Celine McCartan, Principal and Chief Executive of South West College said: "Graduation day is always a memorable occasion and an important milestone for our students.
"It is an opportunity to reflect upon their individual achievements, the knowledge gained, friendships made, and experiences shared. It is a proud day not only for the students, but their families, friends, colleagues, and the staff of South West College who have helped guide them to this point.”
