I left my studies mid way due to some family crisis. However, when I came across this college and inquired about the course, I felt satisfied that now I would be able to complete my much needed A-Level. I immediately enrolled in this online course. Initially it was a bit difficult since I was not used to studying on my computer, but after a week, I started getting a hang of things and now I have completed my Level 3 and have progressed to Level 4 Diploma in Business Studies. My working is also being appreciated by my Manager who too is now enrolled in a Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management. He also wants to do an MBA with LSBR. Thank you so much for helping us achieve our goals. Thank you once again LSBR.
