BTEC National Diploma
Betel Amare
Betel left her home country Eritrea three years ago, before completing her final exams.
She is now settled in London and studying a BTEC National Diploma. As part of this course she applied for a work placement through the UK Career Academy Scheme.
'The course has opened my mind up to so many possibilities and opportunities. I never thought I’d be so interested in the economy and financial markets. My six-week work placement with Accenture, a global consultancy firm based in the City of London, gave me great experience of liaising with corporate clients such as BT.'
Betel plans to stay in London and would like to further her career with Accenture.
