Susan Hebden brings over 30 years of industry experience to the classroom. Having worked in the agricultural sector, factory-oriented businesses, and roles such as a PA to a site manager, Susan understands how businesses operate from the inside out. Her expertise in large industries and accounting software gives students a unique insight into how different departments interconnect.
Our work placements help students explore their career options. “Placements help them figure out what future career they would like,” Susan states. “They get to see first-hand how businesses operate, which gives them a better idea of what suits them best.”
Our course also includes exciting extracurricular activities, such as career fairs, guest speakers, and even team building trips like paintballing. These experiences help students develop confidence, communication, and teamwork skills, which are essential for success in any career.
Susan loves working at Riseholme College because of the fantastic facilities, supportive staff, and, most importantly, the students. “They really want to achieve and get the grades,” she says. “They understand that this qualification is a great building block for whichever career path they choose.’’
