Testimonial
«Before I arrived at the ENILBIO, I did a BEP(BTEC Level One) Transformation Bioservices Professional Bachelor’s Degree in Strasburg. I chose the ENILBIO because it was the logical continuation of my Professional Bachelor’s and I wanted to continue in the food industry sector. I appreciated the practical work in the BTSA STA. For the diploma I liked the tutored project linked to companies.
The real-life professional situations were extremely interesting. The course support documents were well designed, so we didn’t have too much to note down, the essential facts were already there. The apprenticeship has the great advantage of providing access to the professional world.”
