Really eye opening course equipping you with the knowledge and skills needed to begin your journey towards improved environmental performance. Our course trainer was Keith who was one of the most engaging trainers I have met and immediately had us putting our newfound knowledge into practice, giving you the confidence to apply it as well. I couldn't recommend this strongly enough.
I recently sat the IOSH managing safely course which was very well presented by the trainer, Martin. Very informative and insightful.
I found the course very user friendly and helpful. I feel all of the topics covered were layed out well and easy to follow. I would recommend to anyone considering taking the IOSH course.
I really enjoyed the live online, I was still able to interact with fellow learners and have separate group sessions. The tutor was very knowledgeable and gave us plenty of breaks, which helped with concentration.
