"Practice and hone your skills in your spare time, find something interesting and teach yourself."
How did your degree at the University of Chester prepare you for your current role?
The course taught me some of the necessary technical skills needed to perform my role, the most important being programming and database related modules.
I think the experiential learning module was the most useful to me. It was much more aligned to the things I do in my role and how my office environment operates. It gave me a real insight into what I could expect from a job in industry.
