At SMB College Group, our aim is for you to leave college with a fantastic qualification, new friends, amazing memories and, most importantly, the skills and knowledge you need for your future career. We're always looking at ways to improve what we do in order to give you the best possible experience - so it’s always great to get feedback!
Hearing from other students, in their own words, is always more useful than us just saying how great we are - so here are just a handful of past and present students’ testimonials.
Having been wanting to pursue a career in hairdressing but never got the chance to attend daytime courses, SMB College Group has allowed me to chase my dreams and officially become a self-employed hairdresser, allowing me to work and study around family life.
The college was a great start to my career. I am still in shock that I won the Stage Debut Award. It means the world to be to be able to carve a way for black boys and girls that look like me, to show them that anything is possible when you put your mind to it. This is not only for me it’s for you too. Little drops of water make a mighty ocean.
I would recommend the college and the course to future students, the course I did at SMB College Group gave me the initial insight into the industry, trades and skills required. This has benefited me in my later career especially when it comes to managing these trades.
So far, my apprenticeship has given me the opportunity to work well towards my career ambitions, and being in the industry for 4 years already at the age of 20 years old has given me a bit of an upper hand on people that have come straight from university.
My apprenticeship has helped me a lot in my career so far, and hopefully will do in the future.
Not only with learning skills based around the job and within the job, but also communication skills, teamwork skills, but also in an academic sense as well and it covers and ticks all boxes.
Being part of Redrow and having this apprenticeship has allowed me to excel in these areas and get an upper hand over competition I suppose.
