Very well supported CIMA package, 1 week in every 4 at a cima tuition centre.
The Culture
Networking nights were arranged for both bristol and derby and graduates and placement students mingled well, being placed in graduate housing meant social networks were easy to make.
Being a placement student rent was low at £260 including bills, this will increase with inflation
Not amazing, more about the people youre with, though bars and clubs are imrpoving
Lots of clubs- though a lack of a netball team, lots of squash and football and aerobics.
