I am Head of Skills responsible for an Apprentice Programme with 225 apprentices from 45 companies, a National Training Centre network and an online training platform.

Yes. The course has been key to me building new skills in leadership including financial planning and marketing.

The opportunity to learn and be supported by a fantastic provider has helped me develop. The chance to learn from industry experts and build a network amongst my peer group in other sectors has been an excellent opportunity.

The programme is very well structured with lots of support available from tutors, coaches and others. The Uni is always prepared to listen and act on feedback

My employer is supportive however it is always a challenge to balance study, work and personal life.

The training provider has been excellent throughout the programme. I have had to defer a module due to a bereavement and the support provided was fantastic and very welcome.

I have secured a new role mid way though my apprenticeship, changing employer. The apprenticeship has allowed me to demonstrate new skills and capabilities.
