What the students' say ...
Paula Marvelly - UK

“Over the years I had worked in a variety of jobs - publishing, English teaching, even temping in a call centre - but by the time I reached 40 years old, I felt unfulfilled in my daily career.
Initially I felt concerned that both my age and lack of industry experience would make finding a full-time position a challenging task. I am happy to report that I was offered a job as a trainee web designer in a small web and graphic design agency within a few weeks of graduating from the college. My profound thanks to all the tutors and staff at Hove College for giving me the firm foundation to a new and rewarding career.”
