'I started my apprenticeship journey with UEL in 2018, I hadn't been in any form of academia since college for my electrical apprenticeship in 2007, and I had never been exposed to academic writing, assignments, and referencing.
As you can imagine this was very intimidating for me when starting out and I very much felt that I was out of my depth!
My programme lead, lecturers, and progress coach were a positive influence from the onset and constantly provided me with support throughout. I was also provided with all the necessary tools to learn, improve, and succeed.
Even though the course was an apprenticeship, UEL never favoured academia over the portfolio(CMI) aspects of the course, they were determined for me to succeed in both elements.
UEL enabled me to unlock potential in myself, which resulted in me defying my own expectations by achieving a First, and less than 3 months after completing my course I was offered a full manager's role at Savills'.
