I have just recently finished my CMI Level 5 apprenticeship in Management & Leadership. Despite the challenges of COVID in the last 18 months Whyy Change quickly adapted to online learning and they were always there for me. I couldn't recommend them anymore, fantastic experience.

Since my first interactions with Whyy? Change I have been incredibly impressed with their passion and drive for learning and development. This coupled with the tailored and personal service they provide stands them head and shoulders above other training providers. They are an absolute must training provider to be considered in any learning and development strategy.

After starting my apprenticeship at Whyy? Change I immediately knew they were a different type of training provider. They were organised and highly informative but most importantly, they created an environment where you could be comfortable and motivated to learn. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone for any of their training needs.

Very friendly and supportive tutors and staff who really gave me the confidence I needed to kickstart my career in a managerial role. The team leader apprenticeship I took really helped to develop my skill set and massively improved my capabilities in managing a team. I was never afraid to ask any questions and my tutor always went the extra mile to ensure I understood a topic. Many thanks to the Whyy? team!
