Had great service when talking around the course I wanted explaining where it can lead and what progress it can lead too in my chosen field, I’m a returning student and would definitely recommend and more then likely will be back again after my current course 👍

I was dealt with by Sean. I wasn't sure what course I would go for but I knew what I wanted to do, so I spoke to the advisor and he sent my qualifications and he got back to me. I am looking forward to starting my course.

I haven't yet started my course but the support Darren gave me on the phone has been so helpful and I wouldn't have chosen a course at all if it wasn't for him. Thank you so much. I can't wait to get started.
