Testimonials

The graduate programme has demonstrated many more opportunities and areas of learning than I had anticipated. It has allowed me to gain knowledge in a virtual or in-person environment, providing the opportunity to meet and work alongside fellow apprentices and graduates around the country. 

 

Through my journey with Gleeds, I’ve discovered a true passion for quantity surveying, and I am now working towards my RICS accreditation, inspired by the achievements of my peers.
