I chose this course as it aligns with my goals and many trips were offered. I liked that it was assignment-based, allowing me to put time into my work. As the College is quite far away it allowed me to meet new people. The transport to College was also free allowing me to get there and back easily.
Sophie started Lancaster & Morecambe College in 2022 and enrolled in our Uniformed Protective Services course Uniformed Protective Services, hoping to pursue criminology in the future.
The international opportunities influenced Sophie's decision to choose LMC as it would provide her with a diverse range of industry knowledge. She also saw College as a new chapter, a chance to meet new people and make new friends whom she may not have known otherwise.

Sophie received the chance to go to Bulgaria as part of her course, for free! During this trip, students provided daily entertainment to children from Bulgaria, Ukraine and the Czech Republic which included water gymnastics, face painting, origami, dancing, archery, volleyball, pool games and kids games.
I loved every minute of our trip to Bulgaria, from meeting new people and making new friends to working with the children and learning about their different cultures and nationalities. Going to Bulgaria was one of my biggest achievements whilst studying at LMC.
The course has allowed Sophie to continue her studies at Lancaster University and reach her goal of pursuing criminology.
I would recommend the Uniformed Protective Services course. as it involves so many different topics including criminology, behaviour & discipline and physical fitness.

I would say that Hospitality & Catering industry isn’t an easy option, but it can be really rewarding and enjoyable if you work hard at it. It also has excellent job prospects at the end of the course, as the majority of our completing students gain full time employment within high class establishments
Whether you're confident that you want to be a plumber/gas engineer, think you want to try your hand at it, or have no idea what you want to do - plumbing or gas work is an excellent asset for anyone to have. They're both great career options, loved by foreign countries if you're looking to travel, or at the very least will save you some money on a plumber in the future no matter what you end up doing!
My favourite part of my role is helping my students take the first step towards fulfilling their ambitions to go to university and, eventually, progressing into their dream careers.
If you are interested in working with animals, this is a great course for you! As not only do you gain the knowledge and practical skills to work with animals, but you also gain the employability skills to be able to work in teams and work within the industry. It's important to remember that jobs in the animal industry are not just about working with animals, you need to have the skills to deal with people too!
I love working at Lancaster & Morecambe College with such an amazing team that are passionate about delivering outstanding teaching across the departments. The Apprenticeship courses at LMC are well developed programmes that offer students amazing opportunities and experiences, whilst allowing them to earn while they learn as they progress through the Apprenticeship.
If you want the opportunity to use and develop practical skills, learn about an accessible vocational area, have fun, work hard and deal with the public then this is the course for you. LMC is a great community asset and I think the local district are lucky to have such a modern, flexible and engaging place of education.
