I have worked as a ‘head of’ and senior manager roles in communications. Over the last 15 months I have applied for communications roles, but not managed to go beyond first interview. When I went to the job center I came across Breakthrough offering AI training I felt it would be good to broaden my knowledge and training. I’m now looking to build my own business – integrated digital presence and growth solutions for SMB businesses.

Before starting the course I had low confidence due to being out of the workplace for a number of years caring for three generations of my family. I had a basic knowledge about AI. I was keen to learn more about AI to increase my employability. I was attracted to it due to its length and the comprehensive nature of learning several tools.

“I was made redundant back in July last year. As we get older, finding jobs is challenging. I was encouraged by what the bootcamp offered. I had no knowledge of AI, and the bootcamp takes people on a full introduction to AI, from ethics to all platforms, enabling it to deliver both personal and professional requirements. People within the sessions were encouraging and supportive as we were all on different journeys“
