Simply Academy provided me with the knowledge and practical skills needed to become a mortgage advisor. I am leaving the apprenticeship with a solid foundation to build upon in my role. I would like to give a special mention to Darren, my apprenticeship tutor, who guided me through my exams and went the extra mile in preparing me for all my assessments. I would also like to acknowledge Terry, one of the lecturers, who not only provided valuable insights into the industry but also shared some amazing jokes along the way.

The apprenticeship journey I had with Simply Academy was amazing from start to finish. Throughout the apprenticeship my tutor Bill was on hand constantly if I had any questions that needed to be answered. The structure of the crash intensive courses to the 1 day training were all up to a very good standard and they went into a lot of detail to ensure you are comfortable with what you are learning. I would like to say a big thank you to my tutor Bill as he provided me with so much support :)

The apprenticeship went really well. My tutor was incredibly supportive and was on hand to answer any questions I had and to guide me through learning points in order to achieve my goal. The course material and webinars were very accessible and extremely useful in the learning process. The 2 5 day CeMAP courses were a great help to me passing the CeMAP qualifications first time round. all in all a great experience and look forward to moving on in my carer.

Darren, my tutor, was amazing throughout. I will miss our regular calls, his support was second to none and I couldn't recommend him higher. SimplyAcademy made this whole process simple and I thank them for their support throughout. I also highly recommend the CeMAP classroom courses, as this helped me so much to pass my exams.
