“City College Norwich has prepared me in a way that feels like I am working in the industry in a real workplace which is very different from my old school environment. This has changed my outlook on possible work opportunities in future and has taught me how to communicate with people when those positions arise.”
Ben Mills – Event Management & Production
“City College Norwich gave me the opportunity to develop my practical and theoretical knowledge of lighting systems, as well as confidence in using industry kit from a young age. I never thought I would have the chance to work in London venues and light shows and festivals for artists. CCN has helped me achieve this.”
Nick Harvey – Events Management & Production, now a Freelance Lighting Programmer and Technician
