Each of the graduates on the Evolve programme has been on a challenging journey of self and business discovery and I am very proud of the growth and success that they have achieved.

Evolve will continue to unlock individual potential as well as afford each successful colleague within the business the tools with which to grasp the leadership opportunities that exist within ITN Mark Education."

The recent graduates found the personal development as valuable as the professional and have each experienced a challenging yet positive journey over the past 18 months. I'm delighted with the success of the programme so far, in terms of graduates' personal and professional development. I know that that it has given them the tools to recognise their strengths and use them to identify and achieve their career goals."
