My name is 


Rhonda Meenagh and I am presently completing the AMSPAR Diploma in Medical 
Secretarial Studies at Limavady College.


Last year I successfully completed my NVQ Level 3 Administration qulification and was 
considering whether to look for a job or to take one more year at college to become more 
highly qualified and widen my employment options.


I then discovered that because I had achieved my NVQ Level 3 Administration, I could join 
the final year of the AMSPAR Medical Diploma course and in just one year become a medical 
secretary. I knew that this was the route for me!


As with my previous courses at the College I was attached to a work placement - this time 
I was placed in a Health Centre two days each week undertaking a variety of secretarial 
duties. After just four months on work placement I was offered a part-time secretarial 
job. I was delighted, I couldn't believe my luck. I am currently employed part-time at the Health Centre and I am on target to finish my AMSPAR Medical Secretary's Diploma. I am 
looking forward to June when I will be fully qualified to apply for full-time jobs in 
Health Centres, hospitals, nursing homes, the health service and many more organisations.
