Said the following about Paul Heatley:

“Throughout Paul's Driver Training course, he maintained a very high level of commitment and drive, as seen through his 100% score on almost all Assessments set. What was most striking about Paul was his motivation to attain new skills and non more evident than his willingness when it came to his Functional Skills. Dedicating time each week to access his Skills Forward account to study for his exams, Pauls's ultimate success was never in doubt.

To highlight Paul's continued commitment, he recently received the below comments from his Assessor after completing his End Point Assessment.

"The assessor has advised that Paul Heatley deserves to be commended for his performance today. Overall, it was a very good assessment. Paul had prepared and it showed in the quality of the answers the apprentice gave. We would also like to acknowledge that Paul achieved 100% in the safety and security and driving test papers. Great Achievement."

Paul is the ideal role model for the Apprenticeship, providing that it's never too late to change sectors and fully immerse yourself in your new role.“
