Before I decided to go ahead with the course I thought I knew a solid amount about what it takes to build a good CV or a good LinkedIn profile but this course was incredibly informing beyond the basics. I would recommend this to those who don’t quite know where to start from and feel overwhelmed with the process of getting into the industry. This course provides a very good foundation and a stepping stone from which to go into the process more confidently. Thank you!

The guide was a joy to read as it was very practical and realistic. It didn't create false hopes that it would be the source of success to get the industry experience but at the same time, the tools suggested were enlightening and motivating. It was what I call the first small step necessary to be taken towards the motorsport industry.

Did not find new information

Rajiv Sharma

The course pretty much caters to students who are either finishing school or starting college in the UK. It isn't useful to rest of the demographic.
