The Portfolio Collective  Reviews 

I recently graduated from TPC's mentorship programme and I can't recommend enough.

The course content was incredibly comprehensive and packed with valuable insights, leaving me with a wealth of practical knowledge to apply in real-world scenarios. The cohort-based format was a game-changer, with so many people bringing different skills and expertise to the table, which made the whole experience even better. The team were amazing—knowledgeable, professional, and always there to help at every step. If you're on the fence about applying, don't hesitate! You'll come away with more than you expected.

The Portfolio Collective's mentoring course is hands-on, practical, and highly likely to lead directly to paid mentoring roles. Most valuable of all is that it opens the door to the vast Portfolio Collective community and the huge resource that represents. An extremely valuable course that I highly recommend.

Just finished the Catapult programme: excellent 8 weeks programme to cover all the basis of starting a portfolio career (from defining your offer to marketing and pitching it to the practical aspect of a self-owned business). Brilliant people and great, supportive atmosphere. Frankly great value for money. Highly recommended.

I took the 8-week Catapult course to learn how to build a portfolio career and found it to be truly excellent, well above my expectations. The online content was clear and practical and I'll reference it over and over. They kept the weekly 1-hour sessions discussion-based and as long as you watched / read that week's materials in advance, the sessions were very useful.
The founder, Ben Legg, attended for several of the weeks and relayed very practical tips and shared insights into how he runs his portfolio career. He's also very generous and warm and it was a pleasure to be around him. Same with Charlotte who facilitated the course and the individual sessions very effectively. As a result, this was the best training I probably ever had - I'm so grateful to my buddy for recommending it to me!
And it was really, really well-priced at several hundred pounds - it will pay for it very, very quickly!

The TPC Mentorship Program is a transformative journey of self-discovery and personal growth. It connects you with industry veterans who share invaluable insights. The program helps you recognize your strengths while providing a supportive environment to turn weaknesses into opportunities. It's well-organised and elegantly structured.

Working for several weeks on the same case study offered me a deep dive into the complexities of entrepreneurship. Working with a mentee allowed me to practice what I was learning.

Growing alongside like-minded individuals created a motivating atmosphere.

My favourite takeaway is: "As a mentor, you don't need to have all the answers, just the ability to frame the problem powerfully."

This program is an excellent investment for anyone looking to grow personally and repackage their experience to add value to the entrepreneurial world.

I completed TPC's flagship Mentorship Programme. It exceeded my expectations. The course helped me
better understand my own service offerings, expand my network, and find a supportive community to help build and grow a Portfolio career. Highly recommend it!

I took part in an amazing mentorship program with great people that made a tangible impact to my professional development.

I had an opportunity to go through the mentorship course with the team at The Portfolio Collective. Fantastic experience with some invaluable lessons. Amazing community of people who are engaging and supportive. Could not recommend it more.

I gained structure and organisation. I gained a new perspective on my pain points which I never realised before taking the programme.

Ilaria was super motivated and passionate about what she does and she gave me the system my business needed.

I really liked the holistic approach of viewing all the different aspects of mentoring a business person. So I could brush up my knowledge in those areas where I had less exposure in my professional life.
And another big thing for me was NETWORK. I met absolutely amazing people in my cohort and we still keep in touch!

A truly enriching learning and growth experience. I met wonderful people who are now part of my extended network of expertise. The course material and modules are well thought through and delivered by deeply knowledgeable experts. This has genuinely helped me get started with a portfolio career - I use the learnings every day. Can't recommend highly enough.

I’ve had an incredible experience with The Portfolio Collective. Ben Legg and his team have successfully gathered a group of like-minded professionals in a welcoming and collaborative community. The support and willingness to share knowledge and opportunities among members is outstanding. The community is continuously growing, and they offer great courses that are both informative and valuable. If you’re looking to grow your portfolio career with the backing of a friendly and proactive network, I highly recommend The Portfolio Collective!

I was initially unsure of whether a 3 month course on mentoring would be a good investment for me but following a call with Ben Legg one of the founders I took the plunge.

It turned out to have been a great decision and the course was very interesting and rewarding. It was also quite demanding and we had weekly assignments that had to be in on time. Back to the student days.

The course was well put together and professionally delivered but the biggest positive from the 3 months is the cohort of people who you meet on the course. Really excellent people with a huge breadth of knowledge and experience. Great company.

It is well worth the investment in time and money and I recommend it highly.

Really enjoyed the mentor course. Met a remarkable group of people and really grew my understanding of the subject. Highly recommended.

Amazing experience and learning on the Accredited Mentor Programme. In a group with 15 other inspiring and collaborative mentors that really added to the experience and learning journey + creating a real sense of community that has continued beyond the end of the programme. For anyone looking to sharpen their skills and enhance their credibility in advising and mentoring start ups I can’t recommend this course highly enough! 🔥🚀

I joined the Catapult (self study) course last year and am a pioneer lite subscriber. It was great to get a fresh perspective on building a portfolio career and I found the support surprisingly helpful in the weekly catchups attached to the course.

I decided to also enrol and was accepted onto cohort 4 of their mentoring programme. This was excellent and totally exceeded my expectations. It was a brilliant programme with a group of top end peers and superb mentee matching. Thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it to anyone minded to help others start and scale their businesses.

These courses and the wider TPC network have resulted in me landing paid work, but even if they hadn’t they were worth every penny, great value.

Really useful course to help me reflect on work and next steps.

I joined the Portfolio Collective in January and have just completed their (very reasonably priced) 8 week Catapult business development course. I've been really impressed with the attention to detail and clarity of the course and the warmth and generosity of the support provided.

A really useful course to set me on my way as a Portfolio professional. The community was supportive and the course was educational, but having the experts joining sessions (including breakouts) was invaluable.

The Catapult course is brilliant! I left every week closer to setting up my portfolio career. Great balance between targeted content, insightful questions and community discussions to really deepen the knowledge and make it practical. After the course I left with a supportive group of people who are going through the same challenges, practical frameworks and a focus for my business. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking to transition to a portfolio career or who is early on in their journey.
