Deena wanted to further her education, after seeing many of her other friends attending Land Based Training Ltd, she didn't hesitate to sign up when given the opportunity.

In the beginning Deena was attending half days, but after some discussions and thinking she has now increased to more learning hours.

As you can see in the photos, she's enjoying herself and is very proud of what she has achieved so far.

Well done, Deena! Great work enhancing your learning.
