Feedback from our students:

"Very informative staff who were supportive throughout the whole courses duration. From having minor testing knowledge at the start to becoming very competent in a short space of time. The course was exactly what I wanted and it was great value for money!" - B Thomas

"Very intense course delivered well. I have progressed 100%! I use testing on a daily basis but Satnam still taught me better ways to do certain things and how to make more effective use of my time which is very valuable knowledge for me. I've done other courses here in the past and I couldn't recommend this course and centre more." - D Coleman-Mitchell

"Brilliant! Trevor on Zoom and Satnam on the refresher and practical were very clear, helpful and educational. I have progressed well during my time on the course and I now feel much more confident in my testing skills." - S Bradley

"Excellent, the course was put together well and delivered excellently. Really high standard of training. After the course, I now feel confident in my knowledge and ability to work on site when it comes to testing." - J Thompson
