My interest in cyber was sparked when I went on a CyberFirst Advanced residential course which I loved, so thought why not pursue cyber security as a career choice! If you have an interest in IT and problem solving, then definitely consider studying cyber.

I've always had an interest in cyber security. You'll always have a job, everywhere needs cyber security, it's a growing industry and you can go into anything really. The opportunities are endless.

Studying at Gloucestershire College was one of the best decisions I have made in terms of my education and setting me up for my future career. It’s made me realise what field I would like to go into.

There is a lot of freedom in computing. I'm enjoying the computer hardware and software programming side of the course as well as cryptography and cryptanalysis. We just recently went on a trip to The National Museum of Computing which was great.

I feel like if you’re a student who feels ready to work, or someone who wants to learn more than you can at school, I would definitely recommend an apprenticeship; I can only praise how quickly it’s enabled me to evolve as a person and in my career.
