I attended LCB myself as an apprentice and know what students can achieve with hard work. I still really enjoy the challenge of teaching students and get great satisfaction when I see them achieve their goals. The college is regarded highly by industry and this is reflected by the level of sponsors and partnerships that have been forged within individual trade areas. The college employs some excellent staff and many of these have become good friends during the years I have worked here.
