TWO years of study have certainly added up to success for payroll clerk Jackie Preston.
Jackie, who works for Bury Council, has become a graduate of the Institute of Payroll and Pensions Management's (IPPM) Diploma in Payroll Management.
She successfully completed a two-year distance learning course in order to achieve the Institute's BTEC authenticated diploma.
Jackie said: "The hard work was worth it. The IPPM's diploma is what everyone in payroll aspires to and I am proud to be among the graduates."
The diploma is the benchmark for the payroll profession and Jackie was among 280 students who graduated at a ceremony held at the London Palladium.
She received her diploma from Mr Gordon Creswell, IPPM chairman.
