Customer testimonial

There were so many examples and approaches, most of which will be directly useful to my role. The ability to directly reflect on myself was extremely useful, and the way it was presented meant I could easily bring this to bear on my current circumstances.

N.J , HM Land Registry

Dave, Brad & Tom all gained useful knowledge to use going forward in their team leader roles.

They all enjoyed the online courses and would highly recommend them to our other staff members in the future.

Dave, Brad & Tom , Good Fabrications Ltd

Alison was a great trainer and engaged really well with all the delegates. I found the breakout sessions in the groups useful as although we worked in different industries the discussions were universal to all.

A.W , Glenham Property Management Ltd

What a great initiate to get some kudos from the courses I have just completed and now received my certificate of learning – which I am proudly displaying on my desk. The courses were very interactive and informative, with some really interesting and useful content that I can now use to improve my business management skills.

Our company will reap some rewards from the investment that they have made in offering this course to us senior managers. The tutors are also a credit to the business and make the subjects stimulating and easily put into context in our own businesses for those who attended the course. Well done for providing 1st class courses and especially online which is not so easy.

Christine Pattison , CIMPA PLM Services

I learnt lots of new tricks from the course.

Thanks for a great programme; it was pacey, useful and interesting.
