Throughout my studies, I received outstanding support from my teachers, whose encouragement was instrumental to my success, particularly as English is my second language. During my time at BIFE, I developed a strong interest in Finance, Event Management, and HR Management. One highlight of my course was organizing a highly successful event for Pieta House as part of a team. This experience significantly enhanced my leadership and organizational skills. In addition, I gained practical experience as an Accounts Assistant at Powerscourt Hotel Resort and Spa, where I acquired valuable hands-on knowledge in accounting and finance. I am now excited to continue my academic journey, having received an offer to pursue a BA (Honours) in Accounting and Finance at Griffith College. I am deeply grateful to the management and staff at BIFE for their consistent support and for fostering such a positive learning environment." - Martha Mtuwana


"Choosing the Advanced Management FETAC Level 6 course at the Bray Institute was one of the best decisions I have ever made.  I had completed a FETAC Level 5 course in Business and was determined to progress to the next level with the hope of realising a lifelong dream to attend college and obtain my degree.I came across the Institutes prospectus online and was amazed at the choice of courses now available to me.I cannot stress enough how beneficial it has been for me to attend the course in BIFE. Everything that was covered in the classes has been of huge benefit to me here at college and made the transition almost seamless for me. Course content is current, relevant and taught in a very professional manner, in a welcoming and friendly environment." 

- Alison Duff progressed from BIFE to a degree in Logistics and Supply Chain Management at TUD.
