My time at LMC was more than just academic, it was a period of personal and professional growth. I gained practical skills that I continue to use in the workplace, alongside a deeper understanding of business. The supportive learning environment helped build my confidence, resilience, and ability to work collaboratively
Georgia was part of LMC’s first-ever T Level cohort, completing the T Level Business & Project Management Level 3 course from 2023 to 2025. After transferring from another college, she quickly found her feet at LMC and secured a placement with local company HSE Advice UK, a growing Health & Safety consultancy based at White Cross. During her placement, she gained hands-on experience, supported the launch of a podcast series, and began working towards industry qualifications. Georgia is now employed full-time with the company, carrying out risk assessments for school work placements while completing a Level 3 Apprenticeship in Health & Safety. She is on track to become a fully qualified Health & Safety Consultant within two years.
Georgia chose the T Level in Business & Project Management because it offered a valuable combination of classroom learning and practical experience, 80% in college and 20% in the workplace, aligning perfectly with her interest in how businesses operate. She particularly enjoyed gaining hands-on experience with HSE Advice UK during her placement. Throughout her time at LMC, Georgia developed key professional skills including time management, punctuality, and presentation skills.
The course at LMC provided me with valuable skills and knowledge that have directly enhanced my professional capabilities. Whether through gaining a recognised qualification, improving my confidence in the workplace, or deepening my understanding of industry-specific practices, the experience has contributed meaningfully to my career progression. It also offered opportunities to connect with others in my field, helping me build a stronger professional network and broaden my perspective.
Georgia currently works as a Health and Safety Assistant at HSE Advice UK, where she supports the development and implementation of workplace safety protocols across a variety of environments. Her role includes conducting risk assessments, assisting with compliance checks, and contributing to the creation of engaging safety materials that promote awareness and best practices among staff. The position requires strong attention to detail, effective communication skills, and a proactive approach to maintaining a safe and legally compliant workplace.

I gained practical skills that I continue to use in the workplace, alongside a deeper understanding of business. The supportive learning environment helped build my confidence, resilience, and ability to work collaboratively. I also developed a clearer sense of direction for my career, thanks to the guidance of knowledgeable tutors and real-world learning opportunities.
Georgia shared that her biggest accomplishment since leaving College has been gaining full-time employment with her placement provider and starting an Apprenticeship with them.
The advice I would give if you are considering taking the course is: you need to ensure that you have time to study outside of College and ensure that you know what is included in your exams before the day. And if you don’t, Jon is always there to support you.
My favourite part of working at Lancaster & Morecambe college is watching students progress and supporting them with their learning. I also love knowing they are learning within a hairdressing environment and being able to see them develop their skills and knowledge in hairdressing.
Try to achieve the best grades you can. As a qualified Carpenter or Joiner, you will have the opportunity to work anywhere in the world.
My favourite part of the role is guiding my students through the more practical aspects of Forensic Science, especially latent fingerprint collection and evidence handling. I enjoy watching them develop their confidence and skills in these techniques
We have a very knowledgeable and dedicated team from different areas of the animal industry. We offer a range of courses in Animal Studies at different levels to cater for a wide range of students. Practically, you will work with a range of animals on site, spend time in our laboratories and hone your skills further during independent work-related experience. Working with animals can be a fun and rewarding career but it does involve hard graft and dedication!
It’s really difficult to state just one thing I love about working at Lancaster & Morecambe College because there are so many! I really wanted to work here because the college has a fantastic reputation. I love introducing new ways of working and keeping up with relevant trends to improve the course, and I really enjoy the supportive environment that we create for our students.
Industry specific apprenticeships are a great way to learn new skills and knowledge, achieve a recognised qualification and earn a wage. Customer service is the corner stone of every successful business, and courses at LMC will help you identify, improve and introduce these skills successfully.
