The course was very funny and very intense. A steep learning curve and highly rewarding. I met lots of lovely people, learnt a great deal throughout the course and most importantly, really enjoyed it.

The quality of trainers was extremely high standard. The college had great facilities and resources and the teachers were magnificent, always willing to put in extra work where necessary.
