P E T-X i C A S E S T U DY Loreta Petrovaite, aged 24, had been out of work for a while after raising her young son, and wanted to learn more skills to boost her chances of finding a job. Although she was unsure as to what she wanted to do in her career, Loreta knew she had to earn more qualifications to give her as many options as possible. She came across PET-Xi while looking for training providers online, and decided to sign up to its Level 2 Team Leading course to learn the basics of management skills.
Support provided by PET-Xi Loreta started her course in November 2020, and immediately settled into PET-Xi’s virtual learning environment. She passed the course easily, and her mentor at PET-Xi, Ellie Wickett, felt Loreta would benefit from taking more courses as she felt she had the aptitude for them. On Ellie’s advice, Loreta signed up to PET-Xi’s Level 2 Customer Service course, its Level 2 ITQ course, and its Level 2 Health and Social Care course. After just six weeks, Loreta passed all of her courses and had made her CV look a lot more impressive. Ellie said: “Loreta was so enthusiastic during her time with us. She threw herself into every course she took and got on well with her trainers and her classmates. “I’m glad she decided to take more courses after she passed Team Leading – I felt she was more than capable of easily building up her qualifications which will give her a strong base to apply for jobs. “She is a very driven woman and I’m confident she will achieve w hatever she decides to do in the future.”
