After spending five years working in the childcare sector, Edel O’Carroll decided she wanted to switch careers and become a healthcare assistant. She soon found Pitman Training and gained her Medical Secretary Diploma to help her achieve her goal.
“I’ve always been interested in working in healthcare and also really enjoy working with computers, so I thought why not find a course that combines the two? After explaining my ambitions to the team at Pitman they helped me pick out the Medical Secretary Diploma, which I loved.
“In my current role, the hours can be long and often unpredictable. So, having the option to study online and having access to a flexible learning schedule helped me achieve my diploma. The learning coaches were also a great help and always happy to answer any questions I had about the course or challenges I encountered.
“The whole team at Pitman was always there pick me up whenever things got complicated, and the coaches endeavoured to understand my situation and provide support accordingly. I genuinely felt they wanted the best for me. It was an excellent learning experience.”
