When Hennie left school she was sure she wanted to work in an office environment where she would enjoy interacting with other people. Ideally Hennie wanted to get a job and start earning money straight away, so she started looking into Apprenticeship options.

The Business Administration apprenticeship really appealed to her, and she managed to get a job at a local facades company. Once a week during her Apprenticeship, Hennie came to Eastleigh College to study Business Admin.

Just two years later, Hennie is now working as a Marketing Coordinator for the company, and she loves her new role! She continued working as a Receptionist for a year after completing her Business Administration Apprenticeship, before the Marketing Manager recognised her potential in this area and invited her to interview.

The new role suits Hennie well, as her favourite part of the Business Admin course was in fact planning events – she enjoyed being a bit more creative, and her new role allows her to exercise these skills.

Hennie feels like the Business Administration Apprenticeship has taught her essential skills for working in an office, from communication skills and IT skills to more specific tasks such as answering phones.

Now that Hennie is settling into her new role, she hopes to progress in Marketing and move her way up through the company.

Don’t feel pressured to follow what everyone else is doing! Apprenticeships are a good option because you get the best of everything – you get a job, you get experience, you get paid, and you get a qualification.
