Through our Functional Skills courses in Maths and English, we’ve seen countless students go on to achieve remarkable success in higher education and their chosen careers. Here are some inspiring examples of how our Functional Skills qualifications have helped students access nursing courses, join the Metropolitan Police, and gain university admissions.
Accessing a Nursing Course at University
Sophie’s Story: “After years of working in healthcare support roles, I wanted to become a registered nurse, but I lacked the Maths qualifications to enter a nursing program. The Functional Skills Maths Level 2 course at Intech Centre was my pathway forward. The online course was flexible, allowing me to study around my shifts. The practical focus of the curriculum meant I could directly apply what I learned in my current job, enhancing my confidence and skills. Passing the exam was a turning point. With my new qualification, I successfully applied to a nursing course at university, and I’m now on my way to becoming a qualified nurse. The support and guidance from Intech Centre were crucial in helping me achieve this goal.”
Employment with the Metropolitan Police
James’ Success: “I had always aspired to serve my community by joining the Metropolitan Police. However, to do so, I needed to meet their stringent entry requirements, which included passing Functional Skills Maths and English. The comprehensive online courses at Intech Centre prepared me thoroughly. After completing both courses and passing the exams, I submitted my application to the Metropolitan Police. I am now proud to say that I am a serving officer, a role that seemed almost out of reach before my qualifications.”
Getting Accepted to University
Layla’s Journey: “My goal was to study environmental science at university, but I lacked the formal Maths qualifications required for admission. The Functional Skills Maths Level 2 exam through Intech Centre was my solution. The course was engaging and tailored to my needs, helping me to develop a solid foundation in maths. The flexible online format allowed me to balance my studies with part-time work. Achieving my qualification boosted my application, and I was thrilled to be accepted into my chosen university program. Thanks to Intech Centre, I’m now pursuing my passion in environmental science.”
