Trainer on the whole was good, I think he was let down by the course materials. We were constantly told it was a closed book test and assumed all the info needed was in the course notes handout. The 3 test papers were a joke, questions that didn't make sense, duplictaed questions, wrong answers, etc. The venue was on the whole good, the uncertainty around whether or not we would have the test rig boards in time or not was not good and the standard of the board was pretty poor.

I often find you get out of courses what you put in, along with good tutoring. I found our tutor Barry Flood excellent, he broke up the information well and made it easy to follow, but also going into good detail where needed.

Paul who took the course was an excellent tutor, when you didn't understand things he took the time out to explain them properly and in different ways until you understood. he was very friendly and made it easy for you to ask questions. He was a top tutor :)

Paul was an excellent lecturer with high experience in the field that was applied in the class room. I'd highly recommend him.

The trainer Paul Allam was excellent and was probably the best trainer I have had so far in my short electrical career. He was patient and explained everything fully. I have come away with confidence and a complete understanding of the topic he was teaching including a better understanding of the wiring regulations as a whole.
