European Year of Skills

Ertugrul, Italy

The help I received from a European student loan aid programme meant I could do a Master’s at my dream Italian university. I am from Turkey and this loan allowed me to get the visa, study at my dream university, and progress from a trade intern to a successful sales advisor in Rome. Overcoming obstacles in the pursuit of new skills and new directions is tough, but finding creative solutions helps you to find happiness in the end.
