Reviews

After taking my AM2e at your centre I would like to thank you professional staff, Keith and Carl for their excellent support. Keith was able to smooth off the rough edges after working as an electrician for 40 years and Carl for making the assessment process relaxed and stress free. Future training at your centre will always be my first choice
