What鈥檚 the best thing about studying at Coleg Gwent?

鈥淚鈥檝e gained so much confidence since joining college and made new friends too. Our tutors are amazing, they put in so much effort and really care about us getting our grades at the end of the year. I鈥檓 so proud of gaining enough confidence to join the Students鈥� Union as I didn鈥檛 have much confidence in high school. But then I came to college and thought the Students鈥� Union would give me some great experience 鈥� I鈥檓 now successfully completing my course alongside being a Student Ambassador. I鈥檇 never have been confident enough to do that before!鈥�

How did the CG Ambitions team support you?

鈥淭he CG Ambitions team helped me to create my CV and a covering letter when I told them about an organisation I really wanted to work for. They gave lots of tips to enhance the content of my CV and I also had help with preparing for interviews, learning skills to help me on the day and making me feel more confident. Their support helped me to get a summer job at the organisation – I really enjoyed working there.鈥�

What are your long term goals after finishing your course?

鈥淚鈥檇 like to become an Administrative Assistant and then go into Business Management. Long term I鈥檇 love to work within a profitable and successful company, maybe even taking over the management there. I think the modules on my course will be really helpful in achieving these goals as they cover a lot of knowledge that is useful for running a business.鈥�
