“Engineering is a fantastic field - it is very broad. Everything we touch in our daily lives involves some form of engineering. You need to have a bit of vision, be creative, able to investigate things, be resourceful and be a great problem solver. If you are an Engineering employer I think you should consider the Apprenticeship route, as young people have a great deal to offer - they are the next generation of engineers. Greg, our Apprentice, has made great progress with us and this has been helped by the studies he does at the College. He has had fantastic opportunities using the facilities there and he has transferred this across to making our products.”

“Business A Level is very versatile and applies to lots of career paths and is always useful. The class is really good and informative, and our teacher is amazing. One day I would like to run my own business, possibly in sports. I plan to go to university next year. I would 100% recommend Exeter College.”

"The atmosphere at College is very welcoming and was an easy transition from school. The industry placement of the T Level attracted me as it gave me a clear path after the course. My placement is at a tech support company and I now work part time with the company too. I was able to use my skills at College and on my placement in my employment."
