My course thoroughly prepared me for my working life. Each module, including my dissertation, taught me something I use just about every day – data interpretation and integration, the use of analytical tools and the importance of creating user-friendly content.

On a personal level, keeping on top of my coursework deadlines while juggling my placement schedule and tasks taught me to manage my time effectively and efficiently.

As well as experiencing first-hand what it means to work in elite high-performance environments, I discovered the importance of building positive relationships with colleagues. I work hard to build trust and respect with coaches, players and other colleagues.
