Attended some training today in Ipswich and although this was a refresher for me I felt that I have learnt more from today than from previous courses. Thanks for a great day.
Well it’s been a year since my PMVA training and I’ve just had my 3 day refresher. Such a FANTASTIC course and I still highly recommend.
Great trainers, kept my staff engaged throughout. I would highly recommend.
