Outstanding Support and Evolving Apprenticeship Experience

We’ve had a fantastic experience working with Access Industry over the past few years. Their apprenticeship curriculum continues to evolve and improve, and they offer excellent SEN and welfare support when needed.

From the very beginning of our apprenticeship journey three years ago, Katie Bambridge has been a constant source of support. She is consistently knowledgeable, responsive, and approachable, with a warm and friendly manner that makes working with her a pleasure.

Behind the scenes, Rose Taylor has also been a valuable presence, ensuring everything runs smoothly.

Since Jamie Brown joined the team, the quality of tutoring support has been exceptional. His in-depth industry knowledge, supportive attitude, and open-minded approach make a real difference. He is dedicated to helping his candidates succeed—keeping them on track with their work and deadlines, and providing outstanding guidance through the Gateway and End-Point Assessment phases.

Access Creative is a reliable and committed provider that genuinely cares about its learners and partners.

Great support and feedback

I received great support and knowledge during the college part of my apprenticeship. Tracey Cooper provided me with useful feedback at every point during this process and helped me to get the most I could out of it. She also made sure that I was confident and ready for my final assessment with lots of practice beforehand. Many thanks!

From advising us as part of the trailblazer group, to onboarding the first Cohort with MBS as an employer, the whole experience has been professional as well as fun.

Schools Engagement Programme Launch

We’d like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Katie at Access Industries for her outstanding support in the launch of The Power of Events Schools Engagement Programme. From the very beginning, Katie went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Her proactive communication, attention to detail, and genuine enthusiasm made a huge difference behind the scenes.

Katie's professionalism and collaborative spirit were invaluable during such a critical phase of our programme. Her support helped bring our vision to life and made the launch not just a success, but a moment we could truly be proud of.

We’re incredibly grateful to her and look forward to continuing this brilliant partnership. Thank you, Katie, you’ve been a superstar!
