Meet Ciaran, Level 4 Professional Diploma Accounting student

Having worked within the finance team at Warrington & Vale Royal College for the past three and a half years, progressing through levels 2, 3, and now 4, Ciaran's main responsibilities include processing monthly payroll, handling purchase invoices/credits, and performing daily bank reconciliations. He has also learned how to prepare financial statements, complete VAT returns, and manage credit and debit.

Ciaran credits the friendly, supportive tutors at the college for guiding him through each topic thoroughly, preparing him for his exams, and providing extra help when needed.

"Having a day release from the office to complete my course has been great. Being able to earn money while achieving a nationally recognised qualification is even better!"
