Amazing team
I have just completed my Level 3 Business Admin. Charlotte (My Coach) and David (Lesson provider) have been amazing supporters during the process and cannot speak highly enough of them.
I GOT A DISTINCTION!!!
I have just finished my apprenticeship with velocity, achieving a Distinction! I had a rocky start with another provider, as soon as I moved over to velocity Emma took me under her wing. She has been absolutely amazing and help me push myself to produce the best work I could, resulting in an incredible grade that I had only dreamt of! She was an amazing teacher who went into great detail, ensuring all students understood everything. I also want to credit Gemma, who put me at such ease building up to the final EPA exam!
Only training provider I would recommend!🌟
I recently gained a Distinction for my Level 3 Business Administration qualification with Velocity and I couldn’t be more greatful for the incredible support I received throughout the course.
I want to especially thank my tutor Andy Leeman who went above and beyond to guide me not only academically but personally as well. His teaching style was clear and engaging, and he always provided constructive, timely feedback that helped me grow in confidence and understanding. No question was ever too small, and his encouragement kept me motivated throughout the whole process.
On a personal level, although the past year was a tough ride for me, Andy was always approachable, supportive, and genuinely cared about my progress and wellbeing. At times when I doubted myself, he reminded me of my capabilities and pushed me to keep going. Thanks to his endless support I now feel more confident in believing in myself and I’m more than ready to take the next step in my career journey.
I’m extremely thankful for this learning journey and would highly recommend Velocity to anyone looking to achieve their qualifications with the guidance of passionate and caring professionals.
Thanks Andy!
I completed my level 3 business admin apprenticeship with Velocity Academy achieving a distinction, my tutor was Andrew Leeman.
I found the course to be well delivered and tailored to the specification, while also providing a breadth of knowledge of the complete picture for businesses. Throughout the course we were constantly provided with real life examples, which was a predominant factor for my success in the course and confidence in interview, as it provided us with a comprehensive understanding of the practical elements to business.
Andy went above and beyond for me and the rest of my cohort by providing a strong support figure and always making us laugh - not just for the course but for our placements and personal affairs. We all felt as though we could contact him any time, about anything. Andy also provided me with invaluable careers advice, which has resulted in me achieving employment at a much higher level and encouraged me to continue my learning journey.
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and I feel this all owed to Andy's support and coaching. I am very grateful, thanks Andy!
10/10
10/10! I have passed my course and couldn’t thank velocity enough for helping me get through it.

Emma is by far one of the best teachers / mentors I have had. She has helped me all the way through my apprenticeship even when things got tricky! She is always there for you, and goes above and beyond for her Apprentices. The velocity team are all amazing but after working very closely with Emma the last year I can hands down say she is brilliant at what she does!
ghosted by Tom Crossland
I originally applied for a web design role which we realised was too far away for me to commute, Tom then mentioned I could do a marketing apprenticeship and we had a video interview which he then ghosted me after, I have emailed for updates but no response.
