I've just finished my level 3 lead adult care worker apprenticeship and absolutely smashed it because of my tutor joanne heritage. She was amazing and supportive the entire course.
She had faith in me from the start and helped me improve so I could achieve the best possible results!!

I was new to Paragon Skills and I feel like I had a great experience through the whole process to get my level 3. The workshops with Luke, Judy and Heather were engaging and the time always flew by and helped me gain confidence without even realizing it. I was very behind and had 2 months to complete 9 consolidation activities and my tutor Shireen was so attentive and helpful being available daily for support and through her help I was able to catch up and get an overall distinction on my EPA. Couldn't recommend it more to people wanting to do level 2, 3 or higher.

I recently completed the Level 3 Course in Team Leading and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The course content was well-structured, practical, and highly relevant to real-world leadership and management situations. It really helped me build confidence in my leadership skills and apply what I learned directly to my role.
A special mention has to go to my personal tutor, who was fantastic. Their guidance, encouragement, and constructive feedback made a huge difference to my learning experience. They were always approachable, supportive, and genuinely invested in my progress.

My experience with paragon skills was initially challenging due to changing of tutors but later they helped me with good tutor.
Jacqui’s approach was very unique and extremely supportive which helped me to complete my course effortlessly.
Thank you.

Sam has been absolutely amazing throughout my Lead Adult Care Level 3 journey. Her support, encouragement, and clear guidance made such a difference, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better tutor. She was always approachable, motivating, and took the time to make sure I fully understood everything. Thanks to her dedication and support, I achieved an overall distinction. I’m extremely grateful and would highly recommend Sam to anyone starting their apprenticeship.

I have just completed my Level 3 Lead Adult Care Worker Apprenticeship. Although this wasn’t easy for me as it entails a lot of commitment regardless of what you have going on in your other life. The workshops were a real highlight of the programme. The coordinators Heather and Luke consistently created an engaging and welcoming space that encouraged participation and learning. I would also like to acknowledge my tutor, Sam, for overseeing my progress and supporting the completion of the apprenticeship requirements.
I believe that with the help of Paragon my work practices and opportunities have improved and I’m happy I completed my training.

My experience with paragon was very supportive. I enjoyed the workshops and the way the content was presented. My personal tutor Kirsty Welding was supportive throughout my apprenticeship and my end point assessments. She was very reliable and always on hand if I needed a question answered.

I have been completing my NVQ Level 4 in health and social care, whilst working full time as a registered service manager. I had a few setbacks at the start due to changes in my tutor but then I was assigned to Alyson Scott and she made a huge difference to my experience. She spent time with myself and my deputy who is also completing a qualification. She supported us, explained topics in a way that we could relate to. Gave us guidance when we needed it and was available when we needed her.

Delivery an amazing job in this field. All the tutors are nice especially Naomi Graham, Nicola Chelton, Nicola Baird, Francesca Gilbert etc etc.

My experience in my NVQ Level 2 was inspirational. Although I’m not a very technical person online, my tutor Sarah Conebar was extremely helpful to me to set up my learning and prepare very well for my tests and eventually exams to which I’ve passed well. I’m immensely proud of her efforts to reach this milestone.
The way the course was set and delivered was simple enough for me to continue reviewing models, discussions and executing tasks ….were possible due to my friendly tutors.
The extraordinary assistance I got from Sarah Conebar had encouraged me to attempt NVQ Level 3.

Big thank you to Jolene, for the support that you have given to me throughout this apprenticeship. Thanks for your unwavering support it means alot to me.

I only put 3 stars because for me the process has been pretty long. It took 3 years to get my qualification as more than once the course was interrupted. The start of the course wasn’t the best. But the end of my course was amazing, fast and that is only thanks to my last assessor, Alyson, which was amazing. She made me feel very supported, always available. Alyson together with the rest of the team members involved managed to get me up to date in a matter of months, allowing me to pass with a Distinguish. I am happy I got to do this, I do have to say that Paragon skills provided the right materials and right support through, what I believe to be one of their best assessor which would be Alyson.

I am delighted to share my feedback after successfully completing my NVQ Level 3 qualification with Paragon Skills.
I want to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding support provided throughout my learning journey. The entire team at Paragon Skills has been helpful and professional, but I must make special mention of my tutor, Jo Murray. Jo was absolutely excellent – always available to answer questions, patient in explaining complex topics, and consistently encouraging me to reach my full potential. Their dedication to helping learners succeed is truly commendable.
I am not only proud of my own achievement but also proud of the work that Paragon Skills and tutors like Jo Murray do to empower individuals through quality education and training. Thank you for everything.

This deploma has been really good to do i have learned so much, but i couldnt of done it without my amazing tutor alyson scott. She has helped me through everything. She went above and beyond for me and i couldnt fault her for anything. Theres not enough words of praise i could give. Thankyou so much alyson for everything and always pushing me but giving me the reassurance i needed.

When I first started my Level 3 Apprenticeship I was feeling very stressed as the tutor didn't get back to me regularly. I had either 4 or 5 tutors all in all and one also left without informing me. Towards the end of this course I had a tutor called Sarah who was extremely helpful, efficient extremely supportive. It's a shame that I had such a bad start but it ended up well and I received a distinction. I would suggest Paragon look into who they are recruiting as tutors and make sure they are up to the job. Also I believe it was because they had such a large caseload of students and were probably struggling to support everybody.

I completed my apprenticeship as a Senior Health Care Assistant Level 3. The journey was made more challenging because the tutors kept changing. But i’m glad that Jolene Hornsby finished the journey with me because in the last weeks she reassured me that i was capable of passing well and she guided me as i prepared for the observation, including arranging for me to practice for the interviews with her colleague.
