Over 5 years I've completed my level 2, 4 and 4 in business and administration. During my time my assessor has been Rhys Robinson who has been absolutely amazing supporting me throughout my apprenticeship.

Everyone at Learning Unlimited are absolutely great, would 100% recommend.

I have studied here for three years and gained a great range of skills which has set me up for my working career. It has broadened the spectrum of what is achievable by hard work and what job opportunities could arise for me in the future. The staff are top notch and I would recommend anyone who is taking an apprenticeship around the derby area to complete theirs at this place.

I have recently completed my engineering apprenticeship here, and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to go to! All the staff were so helpful and made learning enjoyable.

A special mention to Reis Deaton who was my tutor for the duration of my apprenticeship. He made sure that all my work was well above the standard and not only that, he’s a genuine and lovely bloke to work with.

We have used Learning Unlimited for four apprentices now, one of which is now a permanent member of staff, and the other two are on trajectory to be offered this too, as they're of very high standard!

It can be very difficult to get hold of your liaison and if you phone the office, they just ask to you to phone their mobile, which I've done first. However when you do get them, they're really on it!

My tutor has helped me throughout my Level 2 Business Admin to the point where I have been able to finish my coursework early and start preparing for the next course I have selected. They have been so helpful in making it possible for me to change the direction in which I would like my career to progress and I could not recommend more.

Wendy Taylor provided great support and guidance to my daughter, helping her to see through the fog of the options available to her, giving her confidence and liaising with tutor and employer to facilitate Rebecca's introduction to her apprenticeship which has now become an exciting full-time role! A pleasure to deal with Wendy and her colleagues at Learning Unlimited!

Why can't I 0 star?
Would not recommend to anyone, you are basically on your own once you sign up. I signed up due to someone coming in to my work place and selling it in perfectly, I was really excited to start the social media and digital marketing course level 3.
However once given my 'mentor' I was set with tasks and basically was told to 'get going' so I tried for several weeks, however I wasn't shown how to use the one file properly so was already behind schedule. I was then fobbed off by my 'mentor' and my emails where ignored.

Today I terminated my apprenticeship after being given no help or guidance on how to pass it.

Learning Unlimited only want there funding from the government and do not care about there students. They will not bother with you once there funding has gone through.

COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME
