I chose IDEA Academy because every effort is made from staff and tutors to maintain a healthy study-work-life balance, differentiating them from other institutions.  I am grateful that throughout my studies, I was nurtured by being given professional advice, the necessary support and enough time to work at my own pace.  At IDEA Academy I did not just get a degree, but I’ve learned so many extra life experiences.
