Josephine Ellmore

Access to Higher Education Diploma (Health Professions)

"I wanted to pursue Midwifery but had trouble finding universities that accepted my Level 3 qualifications. Then I found the Access course, which provided the right qualifications for my career. The course was diverse, covering relevant subjects like Sociology and Physiology, which I initially knew little about but ended up really enjoying.

Time management and productivity were key skills I developed, as completing the course in a year was challenging. I stayed motivated by the fascinating content in each module. A highlight was working with the NHS as a healthcare assistant. The course also taught me important academic skills, like referencing and critically analyzing information. I’m proud to have graduated with a first-class degree."
