Trainer- The instructor provided a great deal of information in an accessible manner for a novice, Whilst still making the training challenging, He provided a supportive and good humored environment to learn in. I am very impressed!

Tester- Baz was very friendly and supportive prior to the test. He gave clear instructions that made sense allowing me to feel confident, when I was carrying out the correct task. He made the experience unthreatening and was professional and helpful at all times.

Very good, great trainer ( baz), explained everything really well, was very patient , covered all aspects of the training, from theory, to practical. Could do with some little huts dotted around to keep out the bad weather when not in the machine.
