I already have qualifications in Dental Technologybut I have to pass this certificate so that I can enter university.”

“At first I found the course quite difficult but the tutor hasbeen very helpful and I really enjoy it now. It has improved mycommunication skills and I’ve also met lots of new people fromdifferent backgrounds.”
