In this Success Story

Building a New Career Path

After years working as an Operations Manager in the construction industry across Dubai and Europe, Ahmed Abdulkader was ready for a fresh challenge. Seeking a career change and a structured way to transition into project management, he enrolled in ITonlinelearning’s Project Management Job Programme in December 2023.

Training with Real Impact

Ahmed completed both the PRINCE2® Foundation and PRINCE2® Practitioner certifications through the programme, gaining critical skills and industry-recognised qualifications. He found the training materials well-structured and practical, making it easy to apply the concepts to real-world projects.

Throughout his studies, the support from tutors and the recruitment advisor was consistently outstanding — from practical advice to encouragement and guidance whenever he needed it.

From Support to Success

In November 2024, Ahmed began working directly with ITonlinelearning’s recruitment team. They helped him sharpen his CV, refine his LinkedIn profile, and prepare for interviews with tailored coaching and confidence-boosting mock sessions.

Within just three months, his hard work paid off — Ahmed landed an interview with Transport for London (TfL) and, after thorough preparation, was offered a role as an Assistant Project Manager in February 2025.

A Transformative Experience

Ahmed describes the job programme as transformative, delivering not only respected qualifications but also mentorship, practical support, and the structure he needed to make a successful career change. He now recommends ITonlinelearning to anyone thinking about taking the next step.
