I have recently completed the level 2 TA qualification which has enabled me to switch careers. The support I received from my tutor Alice Vasey was exceptional. She was very supportive whilst encouraging me to go the extra mile. The platform was very user friendly and it was great to study in my own time. Thank you for all your help and coaching- a very professional experience. The employability element gives you confidence to believe in yourself and work out of your comfort zone. The whole experience was positive and I would use Think Employment again. Fantastic support and management of expectations.
