Leah Byrne: Stay-at-Home Mam turned Star Student with Distinction
We are proud to announce Leah Byrne as December’s Student of the Month at Pitman Training, Carlow/Kilkenny!
I have been a stay-at-home mam for just over a year now and was looking to get back to work, but I wanted to find something I would love and enjoy doing every day. I have dreamed of a career in the business sector ever since my very first business class in school. It was one of the few subjects I truly loved and always desired a career in. I was so happy when the opportunity to study with Pitman arose.
Since beginning my course with Pitman, I have received three distinctions in bookkeeping modules and two distinctions in Excel. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I have learned so much, and it has given me the confidence boost I truly needed.
I have had an amazing experience with Pitman. The layout of the courses is amazing and easy to understand. I couldn’t thank everyone in the centre enough for their help. They have all been amazing and are always there to help no matter what. They have made me feel so welcome and done so much for me. They’re the best bunch of people.

Student Testimonials
A big thank you to all the girls in the centre for all their help and support over the last year. Their guidance and reassurance has helped motivate me even more to do anything in terms of education. The Bookkeeping Diploma has been such a beneficial course in terms of modules within the course and the job prospects afterwards. The teaching methods and course books allowed me to study and learn in a way that felt right for me. As a result, I have started a new job doing what I love and know that with Pitman I can go even further. Thanks for all the support and guidance, ladies, you are all truly amazing.
