Brian Clancy: SBL Class of September 2023

Thank you for all your support during the SBL March exam term. Lucky to have received a positive result this morning so thank you again for all your help. I come from a training background and your delivery was brilliant and I really thought your short bitesize videos were invaluable to me, especially with my situation of only being able to study at night once the kids are down and work is under control.

Your availability on email and willingness to provide feedback and advice were great too!

Ronan: SBL Class of March 2023

Thank you so much for the wonderful lectures and structure of the course. I will definitely be recommending anyone looking to do SBL to enrol on your course. As someone who had previously attempted SBL twice and kept getting 49%, my motivation had started going down a little.

From doing the course you made the subject interesting and fun and also encouraged us to aim high. I put down 64% as my target but looking back now I could have actually aimed higher. I ended up getting 63% in the exam. I did panic a bit in the exam and my time management after the first 50mins wasn’t that great. I’m glad I was able to do enough to get over the pass.

Thank you once again and now I can focus on my two remaining exams.

Yolanda: SBL Class of March 2023

I am delighted to let you know I passed the SBL, I thoroughly enjoyed the subject and the way you presented it even though I couldn’t sit most of the lectures live. I wish you all the best in your future and hope your classes will always fill.

Grzegorz (Greg) Stepien: SBL Class of Marc 2023

I thought the whole experience with PAT Business School from start to finish was brilliant! Owen was a fantastic tutor for SBL who gave great advice and tips that worked like a charm on exam day. His Mind Map technique was a brilliant study tool that helped right up to walking into the exam centre. I also found that the chance to take five mock exams on a platform to mimic the exam day was brilliant and really helped to get us used to the conditions we would face. The notes, class structure and Moodle website are all fantastic.

Overall, I would consider anyone planning to sit the SBL exam and not take a course with PAT and Owen very foolish indeed.

Keith O’Connor: SBL Class of June 2023

I would like to thank my Strategic Business Leader lecturer, Owen O’Reilly for his incredible support throughout the study journey to the June 2023 exam, support which allowed me to pass SBL first try with more marks than I originally thought I would get. My key takeaways from my experience with PAT Business School are that, as a student, you are provided with plenty of support so that you can pass your exam, personally I enjoyed mainly the flexibility granted throughout the course was much appreciated as working full time and taking these classes part time are a challenge which is understood by the lecturer, and the mock exams that simulate the Computer Based Exam (CBE) platform and with personalised feedback were the key factors of my provider choice and I have no regrets with my choice of going with PAT Business School.”
