Lydia - Foundation Degree in Business and Management

"I was given the opportunity by my employer to further my education by completing additional training/qualifications. Petroc seemed an obvious choice as it is local to the company.

Studying at Petroc has been very enjoyable, especially the variety of modules on the course, listening to different people’s perspectives on the theories taught and the range of engaging teachers and guest speakers.

If you decide to study this course be prepared that sometimes it can get a bit stressful when multiple pieces of coursework are due in around the same time, however, getting on top of work when it is set is very helpful – do not leave it all to the last minute!"
