Ikenna Awami

Ikenna’s journey with ITonlinelearning began when he decided to take his career to the next level by enrolling in the Project Management Programme. Prior to joining ITonlinelearning, Ikenna worked as an Assistant Project Manager in the residential sector back home in Nigeria. Seeking to transition into a more specialised project management role in the UK, Ikenna took a friend’s recommendation and enrolled in the comprehensive course, which included:

  • PRINCE2 Foundation and Practitioner
  • AgilePM Foundation and Practitioner
  • APM Project Fundamentals Qualification (PFQ)

These certifications provided him with a diverse and well-rounded understanding of project management methodologies, allowing him to enhance his expertise and broaden his career opportunities.

The Learning Experience

For Ikenna, one of the standout aspects of the programme was its flexibility. With a busy schedule to manage, the ability to study at his own pace was crucial. He found the course content to be well-structured, offering interactive modules and real-life case studies that made learning engaging and highly practical. The support from tutors was invaluable, as Ikenna could reach out whenever he faced challenges and receive timely guidance and clarification. He also appreciated the forums available to students, where he could connect with others who had taken the course, share experiences, and learn from their insights.

Recruitment Support

After completing his studies, Ikenna began his recruitment journey with the support of a recruitment advisor from ITonlinelearning, who provided essential assistance with his cover letter, CV, and LinkedIn profile. Rather than simply offering answers, the recruitment advisor guided Ikenna through each step of the job application process, ensuring that he understood the rationale behind the changes and adjustments being made. This approach not only improved his job application materials but also gave him greater confidence in presenting himself to potential employers.

Success

Ikenna’s hard work and the comprehensive support from ITonlinelearning paid off when he secured a role as a Project Controller in the water sector. This role represented a significant career progression for Ikenna, enabling him to utilise his new skills in a dynamic and challenging environment. Notably, as an international student, Ikenna was able to secure a role with a sponsorship visa, which was a crucial factor in his employment journey.

Experience with ITonlinelearning

Ikenna speaks highly of his experience with ITonlinelearning. He values the structured learning path, the practical application of knowledge through real-world scenarios, and the support he received from both the academic team and the recruitment advisors. The programme not only equipped him with the certifications and knowledge needed to transition into his new role but also provided him with the confidence to excel in interviews and the recruitment process.

Recommendation

Ikenna strongly recommends ITonlinelearning to anyone looking to advance their career, particularly those who are considering moving into project management. His successful transition from an Assistant Project Manager in Nigeria to a Project Controller in the UK is a testament to the effectiveness of ITonlinelearning’s programmes and support services.
