A FEW WORDS FROM OUR STUDENTS
"Studying DEC gave me an insight into the industry and what is expected of me as a young professional.
Not only did the course show me what the industry is like, it gave me the opportunity to get a step ahead in the work I needed for university."

“I would not be where I am today if it weren’t for DEC. Mr McDonagh always made sure his students reached their full potential, and he saw great achievement in our successes.
Each lesson with DEC was different, enjoyable and engaging and it made us eager to learn.”

A desire to make the world a better place for everyone grew within me and this ethical will inspired me to choose civil engineering as a career.”
