Thomas Summerfield is currently on the cohort for Pendragon PLC as a Service Adviser:

â€œEntering my final year of sixth form I was at a career crossroads. Many of my friends were opting for the traditional university path but I set out in search of alternative routes to find something that would fast track my career. Finding the CMDA was the perfect solution, enabling me to study for a degree in Management and Leadership whilst gaining invaluable work experience in an industry I've always felt passionate about.

â€œI've gained a real understanding of the business and am able to apply my classroom learnings in a practical way. Developing my skills and confidence in a workplace environment will certainly give me an advantage. It's something that my friends studying a traditional degree just won't get.â€‌
