"The balance of practical and theory was excellent, informative and yet not too difficult to grasp. I think the course itself is great value for money, the tutors are supportive and friendly and ensure students of all backgrounds are treated fairly"

L. Ahmad

"I would definitely recommend the course for anyone looking to do it, the knowledge that you are given while taking the course is phenomenal!" A. Lindfield

"The introduction course was so informative whilst keeping it easy to understand. Doing the practicals made me confident that I have absorbed the information correctly" L.Kerr-Taylor
