James Fincham – Business and Admin apprentice Media Studio

“Thanks to the support of my NVQ assessor I was able to finish my qualifications early and even took on extra units. After my experience of the hospital I was convinced that I wanted to stay on working for the Trust. My first choice was to stay on in my department and fortunately a position came up. I am now doing a further qualification - an ITQ level 3 and am still very much enjoying working for the Trust.
