Praise for Student Ambassadors 2009-2010

"I wanted to say a huge thank you to you, Dan and Jess from the North Bristol Post 16 Centre for giving up the time to talk to our Year 12 students during Enrichment Week last week. The feedback we received from students was really positive and we would really like to book you again when we know dates for next year.

This is an incredibly important week for the centre and we couldn’t run the week without representation from Exeter University.

It’s certainly given our students a lot to think about."

Student Services Leader (Post 16), North Bristol Post-16 centre, July 2010.

 

"The event was a great success and the ambassadors were fantastic. It is so refreshing that I did not have to worry about them at all they were so efficient, fantastic with the students and so helpful. I recommend them with distinction! They really were so amazing."

"I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you, your team and the student ambassadors for making the Extended Project event at the College this week such a success. The students and staff were incredibly positive about every aspect of the day and I would like to pass on not only my praise, but the praise of all the staff involved, to the student ambassadors who were genuinely wonderful throughout the day. They were professional, polite, friendly and really are a wonderful representation of Exeter University!"
