Feedback from our customers

Having access to a pool of over a million students is amazing in any sort of recruitment situation. But then to know that over half of them, or around half of them, are interested in apprenticeships is also great. I think it's quite difficult to find that many people, in one place, that are all interested in apprenticeships - so it's a great opportunity for us."

UCAS's marketing campaigns have been a game changer for us! Three months in and the digital media campaigns, especially on social media in our targeted cities, have shown impressive success rates. We're seeing click-through rates of 8-10%, a number we're genuinely proud of.
