My tutor was Joanne Heritage, I honestly wouldn’t have been able to complete my course without her, she supported me every step of the way and always checked in on me, she encouraged me even when it got hard and believed in me. Thank you Joanne

Catherine was an amazing support throughout the past 18 months. I have learnt so much from completing my level 5, it has definitely made me think about everyday decisions, the way I deal with situation and how i work alongside my colleagues.

Miriam Da Silva Angelico went above and beyond to support one of our learners. Our learner was going trough a difficult time and was ready to throw in the towel at the last hurdle of EPA. Mariam stepped in and put some additional sessions in place, got her manager involved and helped our learner to not only complete, but achieve a distinction! Thank you Miriam and the Paragon Team for the commitment, care and encouragement you've provided us with. Every now and again you encounter someone who has a real passion for their work and for who nothing is too much effort - Miriam is one of those tutors and we're so lucky to be working with her.

My tutor was Joanne Heritage, my tutor has been amazing though out the course. Joanne is very supportive and always happy to help when needed. She reassured me a lot and pushed me though the course and encouraged me to complete it. I couldn’t have completed the course without Joanne’s courage and support.

I recently completed my NVQ Level 3 Apprenticeship in Adult Care with Paragon Skills. While the journey often felt lonely, I want to thank all members of the team for their support, but Special and Massive SHOUT OUT to Jolene Hornsby and Heather Evan for the encouragement and confidence they provided in navigating me to the EPA, their guidance and support was incredible. I am so proud and grateful for the achievement, thank you all.

Jolene Hornsby provides exceptional mentorship, outstanding guidance and structurally breaks down complex Level 3 portfolio requirements, KSBs, and Gateway preparation into manageable steps.
She excels at linking classroom concepts (like person-centered care and safeguarding) to real-world care scenarios, boosting confidence during observations and discussions.
She is highly approachable, responsive, and creates an encouraging environment that leaves learners feeling thoroughly prepared for their End-Point Assessment.

I’m so proud to have completed my Level 3 Lead Adult Care Worker qualification! The journey was challenging, but the support from Shireen Zokaie was amazing from start to finish. She guided and reassured me every step of the way.
A big thank you as well to Heather, Luke, and Judy for the informative and enjoyable workshops. I loved learning new skills with such a supportive team.
Thank you, Paragon, for this opportunity. Excited to continue growing in my career!

I had a challenging start to my training due to issues with my previous tutors, which left me feeling behind with my assignments and lacking the support I needed. However, things completely turned around when Kirsty became my personal tutor.
Kirsty has been absolutely amazing throughout the remainder of my course. She took the time to understand where I was struggling, helped me get back on track with my assignments, and provided consistent support and encouragement every step of the way. Her communication was excellent, and she was always approachable, knowledgeable, and willing to help whenever I had questions.
Thanks to Kirsty's dedication and support, I was able to catch up on my work, regain my confidence, and successfully progress through my training. She is a real credit to the training provider, and her commitment to her learners is outstanding.
While my experience did not start positively, Kirsty's professionalism and support completely changed my view of the provider. I am very grateful for everything she has done and would like to thank her for helping me achieve my goals.

Workshops were really useful to attend and i believe it made a major contribution to me achieve a Distinction in Level 3 Health and Social Care

The experience was quite awesome. I got to understand the course better, knowing the workload, the available support for me, the possible outcome of the course, and application of the course to my daily work schedule.

This nvq has had a lot of ups and downs which have left me in a limbo with getting it done and when I’m going to finish it due to a constant change in tutor. But Matt Glaves really has been the tutor that has pushed me to the finish, realistically I couldn’t have finished without Matt and I received a double distinction

Reply from Paragon Skills
Completing my NVQ Level 3 has equipped me with advanced skills, deeper knowledge, and a more professional approach to my work. The qualification has strengthened my ability to work independently, make informed decisions and deliver high‑quality practice.
I would like to acknowledge my tutor Joanne Heritage for her exceptional support. Her expertise, constructive feedback and consistent encouragement played a key role in my success. Her dedication to my development has been outstanding.
