    “Everything was well organised from the start and we had a mixture of on and off site training, so we could upskill our key staff with minimal disruption to production. Two staff members have been promoted since the training to more senior positions. Attending this bespoke management course gave them confidence to move forward in their careers.”

    “Fantastic session today with Daz Davey from Currere Performance Coaching and Education + Training Skills working on Attitude – The Game Changer with some of the team. Definitely recommend to any company. Amazing how attitude influences you more than knowledge & skills!”

    “We attended the GDPR Course with ETS which was a great learning curve for us. Not only did it open our eyes to internal data which needs securing but answered questions regarding data we hold on behalf of clients. The documents provided by ETS will be a massive help and save us hours of time. A course we can’t recommend highly enough!”

     

    “Really insightful and informative course. Had little knowledge or  confidence on the new regulations but now feel confident we can put in place the key structures to ensure we are in alignment with the new regulations. Was great to hear from individuals who have put in place structures and were kind enough to offer resource to help with our own workplace. Great course- would recommend.”
