LEEDS, U.K. - TelAve -- Millennium Square's Carriageworks Theatre hosted the event, where more than 30 apprenticeship students received their certificates in their caps and gowns.

The apprenticeship course is a BSc (Hons) in Commercial Management and is delivered as part of a franchise partnership with London South Bank University.

The course, which is now in its second year, is designed for individuals aiming to build a career in quantity surveying and commercial management within the construction industry.

Last year's students were the first to complete the programme and attended their graduation at London South Bank University. This year, however, the higher education cohort had the special opportunity to celebrate their achievements closer to home in Leeds.
