Celebrating Student Placement Success

We are thrilled to announce that our student placements, Sara Collins-Soutter & Mya Carmichael have recently graduated from Dundee and Angus College‘s Admin Academy! 🎓 👏

The Admin Academy offers students a work placement within an office-based environment, giving them the opportunity to gain hands-on experience and develop the skills they have learnt in class. 👨‍💻

We were delighted to be able to welcome both Sara and Mya to come work in Angus Housing Association and experience office life in our busy front facing Customer Service department.

Alison Geoghans, Customer Service Team Lead who was extremely proud to attend their Graduation, states :

Both Mya and Sara have excelled during their placement with us, demonstrating remarkable dedication, adaptability and enthusiasm. They embraced challenges with a positive attitude and displayed great initiative in their work. Their contributions to the team over the placement have been invaluable. It has been a real pleasure to watch them flourish over the placement – developing new skills and confidence. Thank you for all your hard work – we are going to miss you both in the office.  We wish you both every success in your future careers

It was truly a pleasure to host both Mya and Sara during their student placements. At Angus Housing Association, we deeply value the mutual benefits these placements bring—not only do they offer students valuable hands-on experience, but they also introduce our organisation to fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and the potential of future talent. We look forward offering further placement opportunities for future Dundee and Angus College students. 🤝 🌟
