My trainer was amazing, inspiring and engaging. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to do this course. The college was supportive when I needed extra assistance with some of the course content as well.

Lauren Spackman

Since the first information session I went to until the last day of my course, I felt respected and like I could go talk to anyone there and ask for help if needed. I felt very welcomed and I know I will be welcomed back.
