WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY

“It is a wonderful foundation, suitable for everyone.”

The framework of the course suited because I was able to watch lectures and study after work and combine learning with employment and being a mother.

what our students say

“Through the apprenticeship, I would be able to make a head start on my career,”

While researching what I wanted to do after my A-Levels, I became very interested in the Higher-Level Apprenticeship, as opposed to the traditional university route into the sector.

I felt through the apprenticeship, I would be able to make a head start on my career, gain experience and develop professionally while studying towards a professional, degree-equivalent qualification.
