Hear from our students

Part time learner, Lucinda GatrellLucinda was a part time Human Resources learner who had worked in HR for twelve years with no formal training. She decided to officially study at Coleg Gwent to achieve relevant qualifications for her work:

“Coleg Gwent were able to offer a weekly one-day course and studying this way was my preference. I enjoyed every aspect of the course and passing every module with good comments was a real major accomplishment for me. My main advice is to fully focus when in class, do your best at all times, but most importantly, enjoy it!â€

Part time learner, Robin HammetSports student Robin says his course at Coleg Gwent has made all the difference in achieving his dream career:

“Long term, I want to be a personal trainer. The qualifications I’ve achieved have opened a lot of new doors and exciting experiences for me. I was very nervous before starting college as it had been 27 years since I’d left school. However, the course is fantastic and so different from school. It’s all adults who want to achieve something. The tutors have given me belief in myself as I used to be quite shy.â€

Part time learner, Sarah Spargo MorganSarah was a stay-at-home mum and she found that balancing her part-time Photography course with childcare commitments has been easy:

“The timings are convenient for people who work or have children. I’m looking forward to the next course and hope to set up my own photography business in the future.â€
