SKILLS CITY SUCCESS STORY Meet Xanthe
“Skills City really went above and beyond my expectations. I wanted to brush up on some of my art skills, but I learned so much. The networking, quality of the course and the lectures were brilliant. The gametech programme has hugely helped me with the skills I’ve learnt in my freelance career. I’ve had opportunities in industries inside and outside of video games that I didn’t even know would be available.” Cobi Fusco Skills City Gametech graduate
“Embarking on a new career has been transformative for my life. I’ve got confidence and it’s made a big difference to my family. My current role is 100% working from home; it fits in really well with the school runs and allows me to be there when the children are at home. The advice I’d give other mums thinking about whether to take this step is just go for it. You’ll have something amazing on your CV and will learn new skills.”
