- "The best part about the course is the opportunity, skills, and resources. It helped me further explore my interests, and the knowledge I have gained has allowed me to realise my passions and turn them into a meaningful future." Declan Brown (Business Management)
- "Being taught by people who had worked in industry and could share their knowledge was invaluable. Hearing about how they had used certain techniques in the past provided a sense of realism to the course." Amy Drake (Criminology and Forensic Investigation)
- "The supervisors and tutors I've had, have absolutely been a godsend, making my journey a lot easier!" Shabana Bi (Counselling)

- "The most valuable asset for me was the radio studio at Inspire Education Group’s Media & Journalism Centre. Being able to see the set-up and ‘play around’ with the equipment gave me plenty of experience before I went to the BBC radio station, making starting work far less daunting."
