“During my placement year I hugely benefited from the wealth of experience of my manager and colleagues. The trust I was presented with and the ever growing responsibility I was given made me proud and were a great motivator in my professional development. I could not possibly have had a better year with greater impact on my development and wholeheartedly recommend a professional training year to fellow students!”

Just a very quick update to say that the USA State Visit has gone extremely well! I worked on the State Banquet which is a unique experience in itself. After this I was overseeing the coffee and petit four service within two drawing rooms for the President of the USA and The First Lady including all members of the Royal Family. Can the placement get any better!!
