The apprenticeship journey I had with Simply Academy was very good from start to finish. They structure all your learning throughout your time with them so that you can easily plan for the upcoming tasks you have ahead. My tutor was extremely helpful when studying for my exam and helped me to pass this. I believe I am now better prepared to work in the financial industry and I would highly recommend SImply Academy.

It was a really insightful course and Alan who did my CeMAP 1 was so understanding and broke things down into manageable chunks.

I found some of the work given to me wasn't always relevant to the course I was on, so at times I was questioning why I needed to complete it. That being said the support and help I received from my tutor, Margaret Bloor, was exceptional. She was understanding and supportive at all times.

Overall the apprenticeship was helpful, especially as someone completely new to the industry. There was plenty of support from Simply Academy, in particular from my Tutor, who was always on hand to help. Certain parts of the course seemed a bit unnecessary at times, but overall this was a very helpful course.

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.

My tutor Darren was/is an absolute legend. His support and knowledge was absolutely fantastic. His help and support really pushed me through to the end. He has made the apprenticeship incredibly enjoyable for me, he went above and beyond probably too many times. Cannot recommend Darren enough!

Darren was a great support during my apprenticeship, he explained the process thoroughly in our regular meetings. From helping me with my exam studying, off the job training and end point assessment, he has been great. He went above and beyond to help me with my exam studies and getting through the end point assessment. Overall I would definitely recommend Simply Academy.
