"The whole team at Netcom training have been very helpful and lovely to work with, getting me ready with a good CV and linkedin profile, very giving of their time. Tony Grainger was my instructor and what a wealth of knowledge he has, he always made time for us and our questions when we needed more explanation on specifics, he got us all ready for our A+ N+ and Security + and I am very happy with his relaxed teaching style."

"Netcom Training - IT support Engineer, Cisco IT Essential 8, 12-week course. My overall experience with the course has been excellent, from the office staff to the trainer, Tony Grainger. I would especially like to highlight Tony's exceptional skills as a trainer. He is highly competent, knowledgeable, and passionate about teaching. While he speaks quickly, he ensures that all the essential details of each chapter and module are thoroughly explained. Tony, you did an amazing job, and it was a pleasure learning from you. I truly appreciate your effort and dedication. However, I believe the progression support could be enhanced to better assist students with securing employment after completing the course. We had only a couple of sessions with the progression team, which mainly focused on basic information such as building a strong CV and improving our LinkedIn profiles. More comprehensive support and guidance in job placement would be beneficial for future students."

"The course is in-depth providing a rounded understanding of IT to develop as a technician. It caters for people without an IT background, but can be very fast paced for those learners. The team are supportive and help to develop your career. Queries were answered quickly, with solutions to issues that arose. Technical issues can be frustrating and a programme plan at the start of the course would be useful."
