Student Profile(s)
Kirsty Moll
"I'm so glad that I chose the MAED course. After I handed in my dissertation I got a call from Cambridge Health and Education International to offer me a job! They invited me to apply for a position of Project Officer and suggested that it may help me to get more experience. It's a temporary role for 5 months, however, at the interview they asked me if I'd still be interested in being an Education Adviser." - MA Education and Development
