If anyone is thinking of a career change but scared the current climate will slim their chances, hold that thought – I decided to look into getting NVQ qualifications to further my career and, well, myself. City & Guilds provide a number of NVQ qualifications and vocational qualifications in such a vast range of subjects, and the quality is so refined and respected in the work world, it really made me realise there were hundreds of options as to which qualification I could choose to study, and use to possibly change my life.

NVQ qualifications and vocational qualifications at City & Guilds are also fantastic because if, like me, you have a job and kids, fitting in the time for anything else can seem daunting and pointless. But with City & Guilds, you can fit in your NVQ around your time schedule, which means you can really focus on it and get the best out of it. Retraining was the best thing I ever did. That was a couple of years ago, and I am even now considering going back for NVQ assessor training – how good is that!
