I am glad I made the right decision, I now run my own very successful Wedding Dress business and have just expanded to a second shop.” Maria – Evening CIM PG Diploma “I just quietly got on and studied while I worked. I didn’t tell my boss I was doing it in case I failed! When I passed with flying colours I was so proud to tell him. Six months later I got a significant promotion and now manage a team of staff. I don’t think he would have looked at me had I not got my professional qualification” The University in West London
