Our impact

Before LTSB, I didn’t know any women working in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths - let alone anyone who could offer me advice for getting into a professional career. LTSB played a critical role in reaching me just when I was deciding to apply for apprenticeships. This type of opportunity taught me the difference between having a job and being able to have a career.”

I would recommend this especially if you are looking to build your first ever strong network (your cohort). Also, this programme can serve to add more structure to your journey and put things into perspective especially if you're taking a gap year or if you're not sure about carrying on in the route you have been aiming for. Join LTSB.

The LTSB programme helped me maximise my skill set, gain invaluable advice and make meaningful connections. I couldn’t recommend it more to anyone who is young, passionate and eager to get their foot through the door. It’s clear that everyone that works here is passionate and enthusiastic about the work that they do!

LTSB has played an influential role in helping me grow both personally and professionally. Through their support, guidance, and preparation, I’ve gained the confidence and skills needed to secure an apprenticeship. Now, I'm an Accounts Assistant at Naismiths Limited. Since starting my apprenticeship, I've gained valuable hands-on experience and continued to build my knowledge through my studies. It’s been a challenging but rewarding journey so far, and I’m excited to keep progressing in my career in finance.

Going into my gap year, I genuinely felt like I was being thrown into the deep end. Joining the programme introduced me to students who were going through the exact same thing that I was, and who I now consider good friends. I have seen a significant difference in the person that I am today in comparison to the person I was before the programme. I have not only developed myself legally, but personally and professionally. This was one of the best decisions I made. Thank you LTSB for your unwavering support!

I learned that I am well articulated and that my voice matters. Make the most of this opportunity and get fully involved. Ask questions and actively participate and you will learn something valuable.
