In her student address, Tracey Nakawooya, a graduate of QQI Level 5 Business and Finance and a member of the Rathmines Campus Student Council said:
‘’Rathmines wasn’t just a college it was a community. Our teachers went beyond the course modules to make sure we were seen, heard, and challenged. Whether it was through professional development sessions, interview prep, or the incredible Erasmus opportunities, every effort was made to prepare students not just for exams, but for life.’’
