Staff Testimonials
"The Welsh in Work Certificate is an excellent opportunity to gain confidence in doing work in Welsh, and practice one’s skills with colleagues. Only things that are directly relevant are in the curriculum. I’d recommend the scheme to anyone who wants to work (more) using Welsh but needs a bit of practice!"
