Students of Pembroke College of Beauty & Body Therapy received their international CIDESCO diplomas in Beauty and Body Therapy at the Clarion Hotel recently. The presentation was attended by the international examiner Mrs Anne Lie Soderbjer from Sweden who praised the students for the top class professional standards they had demonstrated during a week of intensive written and practical examinations.
Helen O’Sullivan Quinn, managing director and principal of the college, addressed the girls: “you are embarking on a career that will last your working life, I wish you every success for the future and would like you to always abide by the standards in beauty therapy that were given to you during your training in Pembroke college.”
Helen congratulated all this year’s students and said that their hard work and willingness to learn had made running the college very enjoyable. Helen also paid tribute to the Pembroke tutors for their hard work and dedication to both the college and the students throughout the year.
Pembroke College prides itself on its small class numbers and experienced staff which contributes to their high standards and successful results year after year.
The student of the year award this year went to Niamh Enright from County Kerry, while Michelle Heneghan from Kilross in Tipperary secured the best thesis award for her excellent research into ‘The History of Make up’.
Pembroke College has been established since 1987 and is a licensed CIDESCO, CIBTAC and ITEC college. Through constant dedication to training and development, it is now regarded as one of the most prestigious schools in the south and mid west region of Ireland.
