Hear from our students and staff
“I’ve noticed my confidence and individual professionalism develop hugely”
The best part of my placement so far has been a recent trip to Dubai. I got flown out to work on the DP World Tour championship for just over a month. The experience I gained working out there was incomparable. My placement has provided me with valuable business experience, and I’ve also noticed my confidence and individual professionalism develop hugely.
