    Learner, Leadership Programme

    Level 5 Leadership and Management Qualification - Working with Children, Individuals and Families learner

  • I was encouraged to do this course by my manager and was very nervous as at 58 I had not carried out this sort of learning which needed assignments for years. I was apprehensive. The tutor was supportive throughout and my confidence has built. I passed with her support and am delighted. It supported me to go for the next level job which I got!

    Learner RBKC Level 5
