Training Course Portfolio

Welcome to

Training does not come in just one form; making training fit people’s needs is our priority. We are a

company that feels that the end result is making people happy and confident, and then it is all

worthwhile.

In the following pages you will find our courses and course content, course accreditation is with IMI

Awards. You can be assured of course content and quality ensuring your investment in training is

worthwhile.

Training course content is built around the needs of today; we feel training for older technology

should have been carried out when it was relevant. Timeline references are used in many cases; this

enables better understanding of why things happen when they do.

Please note some of our training can be carried out on your premises, but it is not possible to

transport all the training offered as some equipment is not practically transported. There is always

the option of the training being carried out at our new training premises here in West Yorkshire. We

are conveniently located within easy reach of major motorway networks. Please feel free to call to

discuss any specific training needs or clarification on any points.
