Natalie
I have been working in Town Hall at Birmingham since last 10 years and was stuck at one position without a promotion due to my lack of higher education qualification. Then one of my seniors suggested that I take a look at London School of business research and on his advice I enrolled in this course. This gave me not only a higher education qualification but also a self confidence since I was able to manage my work, life and study balance and completed this course in under 6 months with an instant promotion after that. Thank you so much Don Pollock for your advice and thank you LSBR team for your continued support and advice
