First class training facilities and purpose-built structures offered an excellent training platform. The instructors were very knowledgeable and a great group of people. Looking forward to completing more courses in the coming months.
The training I received here was first-rate, a purpose-built training centre and instructors that not only know their subject matter but have extensive hands-on experience. I would highly recommend this training facility.
Great staff, venue might have been there a few years, but all facilities are up to date and we'll kept. Equipment is of a high standard and the trainers know exactly what they're doing and talking about and were always happy to help.
