New career is a dream come true for Tracey


A Clitheroe mum-of-three has realisedherdreamofwork-. ing for the Probation Serv- . ice after graduating with a degree in Criminology from Blackburn College.


Tracey Rigg (43) started at the college’s University Centre as a mature student, aged 38, with her sights firmly set on becoming a Probation Offic­ er. She has now been select­ ed for the graduate probation scheme, one of only 300 peo­ ple across the UK accepted from 8,000 applications. “When I started at college


it was my intention to become a Probation Officer all along. After five years of hard work I can finally saythatlhave re- alisedmy dream,"Tracey said. She really enjoyed the


course and made some great friends who she met on an Access to Higher Education course for adult learners, be­ fore moving on to her degree. Tracey suffered health prob­ lems during her degree and said the support she received from the college was amazing. “Returning to education

I felt at all times able to approach all staff with the knowledge that my fears and worries would be taken seriously and under­ stood,"said Tracey. “There were times that I


did not believe that I could complete the course success­ fully, so receiving my classifi­ cation of 2:1 was an emotional moment. The pride that my parents and children felt for me made the hard work worthwhile.”


to potential students, it would be to work hard, read every­ thing and more and to enjoy every minute, even when the topicisheavy going. Ask ques­ tions if you don’t understand and remain open minded at all


. times,” added Tracey. She was among 1,000 stu-


dentsfrom Blackburn College who took part in a tradition­ al procession, flanked with trumpeters and distinguished guests, to mark their gradua­ tion.


Statistics show that nine


out of 10 of graduates from University Centre at Black­ burn College are in work or further study, just six months after graduation. There are still places available on degree • courses. For more informa­ tion, visit the college’s Open Event on Thursday Novem- • her 27th from 4-30 until 8 pm.
