Hannah was in her final year of high school, and like many of us, struggling to figure out what she wanted to do with her future. ‘I was working part-time at a restaurant and was extremely lost with what I wanted to do.’ She says.
Hannah discovered The Career Academy through the recommendation of a friend and decided to enrol. ‘I chose The Career Academy because the wide variety of courses they have to offer was extremely appealing and exactly what I was looking for.’ It wasn’t just the range of choices that appealed to Hannah – studying online meant that she was able to be in control of her study rather than her schedule being dictated by a fixed timetable.
‘I also liked the structure and flexibility the courses provided, the level of independence the courses allowed was something I really enjoyed about TCA. It meant I was able to work on my time management skills and be in control of my schedule. I liked how well the course was outlined and that it was easy to understand. Another plus was the use of forums, as this meant I could engage with other students.’
The flexibility that The Career Academy offered also meant that Hannah was able to continue working throughout her studies. ‘Studying at The Career Academy meant I was able to balance work and study well. At the time, I was waitressing at night and on the weekend, but The Career Academy’s course structure meant I could study at times that suited my schedule best.’
It didn’t take long after completing her course for Hannah to land a new job. ‘I was given the opportunity to work as a sales administrator for a local packaging company. The knowledge gained from my course has certainly helped in my sales administration role. It gave me a great insight into the administration world, and helped make the transition into this role extremely smooth.’
Hannah’s journey is far from over, and she’s now decided to enrol in a Bachelor of Business to continue her career journey. ‘Completing my course with The Career Academy straight out of school was one of the best decisions I could have made. It was such a good start to my career and really helped me find what I was passionate about.’
Hannah studied the Certificate in Reception & Office Support – a comprehensive 10-week course designed to give you the skills to kickstart your reception career including effective business communication, customer service, health and safety, and an introduction to Microsoft Word.
