"My experience with Netcom has been extremely positive. I enrolled on this course, and it has honestly been one of the best learning decisions I have made. The course is very practical and focuses on real skills that can be applied immediately when building a business online. Gary, the trainer, is very knowledgeable and professional. He has a lot of real industry experience and explains concepts clearly, using practical examples and useful advice. He is also supportive and encourages questions, which makes the learning environment comfortable and motivating. Overall, the course has helped me gain confidence in using digital tools to grow a business online. I would highly recommend this training to anyone who wants to understand social media marketing and web design in a practical and supportive learning environment."

"I started the course at Netcom, not knowing if it would be the right direction for me. I wanted to enhance my skills and broaden my understanding in relation to social media. I have to say I learnt a lot that I didn't know before starting. With clear teaching and gudiance I digested complex ideas and applied them to the project that was started from day 1. Learning new skills and practically applying them is a great way to learn and something that completely resonates with me. I've come away with more confidence in myself at a level I didn't know I would before joining the course. With the careers support provided after the course, I feel that it will also help me with securing a role that I thoroughly enjoy and one that I can excel in. Huge shoutout to Gary for his brilliant expertise and support, couldn't have done it without him."

"I did social media marketing and web design , Gary was an immersive and knowledgeable tutor , really enjoyed his lessons but the only thing that derailed us was the second week when another trainer took over and wasn't as interesting , and that made me fall behind , in general the course was good , i learned alot and the AI part was fascinating so i would recommend it "

"I really enjoyed my course, my tutor was very clear in the lessons and his pace when teaching was just right for me. I have learned things that interest me and feel a little more confident moving forward on my journey into cyber security "

"The lessons were really helpful and engaging, I worked as part of a great group who persevered through from start to finish. Lots of engaging activities that got us thinking and improved on already existing skills and gave confidence for new ones like remembering what we learnt in previous lessons. This was all thanks to Shaun, a friendly, professional and extremely patient tutor who guided us through the workbooks and inspired us to elevate our understanding of Cyber Security; I regained an interest in the industry through this course and it has helped me to understand better, the type of role I wish to pursue and what I must do to reach my goals. Committing to a night school on top of working full time is far from easy and I questioned if I would see it through, given how much time I would have to sacrifice but I'm glad I completed it. Another achievement and qualification to go on the CV and hopefully a future involving IT security. "

"My experience with NetCom was very good overall. I completed the Cyber Security Level 3 course, and the trainer, Shaun, was very nice, helpful, and excellent at explaining the material in a way that was easy to understand. The course material was very well made and clearly presented, which made it much easier to understand the topics covered throughout the course. The resources provided were also very good and helpful for learning and revising the content. They were easy to access and well organised, making it simple to find the information needed when studying or completing tasks. Netcom also does a great job supporting career progression."
