Vesna started her Level 4 Diploma in April 2020, and was finished in less than six months! We wanted to get to know a bit more about our fastest ever student, so we posed 8 questions for her…

2. What’s your favourite movie of all time?
My favourite movies of all time definitely have to be Back to the Future I, II and III.
3. When you retire, where in the world would you like to live, money no object?
If I had the option to live anywhere in the world, I would choose Hawaii.
4. How did you find NALP?
I found NALP on the internet, with the help of my mentor at my current employment. He inspired me to look into it closely and directed me to web pages.
5. You did the qualification in less than 6 months. What prompted you to complete it so quickly?
I am a person who strives to reach my set goals. I saw this opportunity as the means to an end. Because of my passion for law, it motivated me to complete it quicker.

I believe this qualification will open doors for me to progress within my legal career. It provided me life-long skills which will be useful in my career growth.

8. How do believe NALP can help you achieve these aspirations?
Yes I do believe NALP can help me achieve my inspiration. I have to say that the one-on-one support I received during my studies has been phenomenal.
