Testimonials

Read what our past students have to say about their experience with the eBusiness with Digital Marketing course at Abbeyleix FETC

“I completed the e-business award at Abbeyleix FETC and then progressed to the Advanced Certificate in Business, QQI Level 6 in the Centre. After doing well on both courses, I obtained advanced entry to Year 2 of the Bachelor of Business (Honours) Degree in Supply Chain Management in IT Carlow. I cannot overstate the value of the knowledge and skills I received from both courses, for my current and future studies. This knowledge has set the basis for my progression in education. I found the subject of e-business fascinating and it was my interest in globalisation and efficiency in business processes using ERP systems, that steered me towards Supply Chain Management (SCM). The Level 5 e-business course has subjects such as web authoring, digital marketing and database methods which have been invaluable to me now whilst undertaking my degree. I am very hopeful for the future now, as there are many job opportunities in the area of Supply Chain Management”.
