The Learning Foundry go above and beyond to make sure you succeed – Rebecca's Story

Rebecca started her career in a admin support before becoming a Lettings and Data Admin Apprentice two years ago. Rebecca jumped at the chance to get training to support her in her role.
“I knew it would be good for me to expand my knowledge, my employer introduced me to The Learning Foundry.
“It was the right fit, The Learning Foundry had the course that suited what I wanted to do and at the level I wanted it to be.
“From the start, I felt like the programme was extremely relevant to my role. I learnt more about my department, but I also learnt about other departments which I may consider working in in the future.
“Working towards this qualification has helped me to feel more confident in my knowledge of the housing sector and shown me that I have the skills to be able to apply for jobs I wouldn’t have before.
“The support I had from my tutor and support staff at The Learning Foundry was amazing. My tutor, Emily, went above and beyond to make sure that I was doing okay, and that I wasn’t overwhelmed.
“I struggle with my confidence, and I wasn’t confident in my writing ability at all before the course started. Emily helped to boost my confidence as the course went on. She is such a friendly, positive person and I’m extremely glad that I had her support throughout this course.
“I knew The Learning Foundry cared about me, which is so refreshing. If I needed help, my tutor would book in some one-to-one time to help me. Even if I didn’t feel I needed help, I knew that I had her support there if I needed it.
“Mackenzie, one of the Learning Support Officers was also amazing supporting me throughout my apprenticeship.
“I got support checking my assignments for spelling and grammar, or understanding the question. Mackenzie would always make time for me if I needed support. She created some ‘Initial Worry Tips and Tricks’ to help with my anxious feelings around exams. This has been so useful, even beyond my apprenticeship!
“Working with Mackenzie has also helped me gain more confidence. I could honestly praise Emily, Mackenzie and The Learning Foundry team even more, but I’d be here for hours!”
Well done, Rebecca, you have smashed it! 👏
