Sharptraining was a great choice to do my SVQ 3. Nicky was very helpful and always there when needed help. The course was very straightforward. An overall pleasant experience would choose them again.
Great experience
I've been supported by Nicky to gain my SVQ4 (SCQF Level 10) Leadership & Management. I would not hesitate to recommend using Sharp Training as even from the start of us enquiring about their services, they have provided us with a reliable, supportive and personable service. Nicky was always responsive and helpful when I needed anything and I've really felt supported throughout the SVQ and never rushed. It's been a while since I did any formal qualifications and she made it so easy for me, I honestly can't thank her enough.

A great and efficient learning experience with Sharp Training
I was supported very well during the course of my SVQ3 programme at Sharp Training. The whole process from the beginning to the end was clear and easy. Nicky was always available to clarify and answer my questions. Her replies and responses to all my queries were prompt. I have now successfully completed this programme and it seemed nearly effortless with the team at Sharp Training. I highly recommend sharp training to anyone looking to complete their SVQ3 training. You will not be disappointed with their efficiency. Thank you to Nicky and the team at Sharp Training for all your services.
Fantastic SVQ Journey with SharpTraining
I’d like to thank Nichola and the SharpTraining team for their fantastic support throughout my SVQ2. Nichola has been an excellent assessor—professional, friendly, and always encouraging. Her clear guidance and feedback made the process smooth and enjoyable. I’m very grateful for her help and highly recommend SharpTraining for anyone starting their SVQ journey.
COMPETENT
At first I was scared when I want to embark on my SVQ 3. But with Tracy, she make it easier for me. Detailed, explanatory, straight forward and she was ready to listen to me anyday. She is competent, friendly and she built the confidence in me that i can do it and surely I MADE IT. I will recommend Sharp Training all the way. They are reliable, professional, competent and have a good standard.
QUALITY TRAINING
The excellent work my Assessor, Tracy put in was amazing, each reflective account I wrote she made useful comments and corrections where necessary. The quality of the training was exceptional and largely practical as it dwelled on mostly what I have been doing. The timelines for responses to the submissions of assignments or Reflective Accounts were quick and straightforward. Payments of fees was also flexible as I did a monthly direct debit though there was penalty for default. In addition, full payments must be made before certificate will be issued at the end of the training

The Assessor Who Never Clocked Out
I would like to express my appreciation for my SVQ 4 Leadership and Management assessor, Nichola (Nicky), whose unwavering support has been instrumental throughout my qualification journey.
From the outset, Nicky showed genuine dedication to my progress. She regularly checked in to ensure I was on track, always ready to adapt her approach to suit my needs. Her encouragement and guidance gave me the confidence to push forward, even during challenging moments.
What truly sets Nicky apart is her willingness to go above and beyond. She agreed to observe me over the weekend, despite it being outside her scheduled working hours, just to ensure I had every opportunity to succeed. That level of commitment is rare and deeply appreciated.
Nicky has been more than an assessor; she’s been a mentor, a motivator, and a steady source of reassurance. Her professionalism, kindness, and belief in my potential have made a lasting impact on both my learning and my leadership development.
I’m incredibly grateful to have had Nicky by my side. Her support has not only helped me achieve my SVQ 4 but has also inspired me to lead with the same compassion and dedication.
Guided with Skill, Supported with Heart
I cannot recommend Tracy highly enough as an SVQ3 tutor. She is exceptionally skilled in her field, deeply supportive, and genuinely invested in her student’s success. Her ability to simplify complex concepts while maintaining professional depth made every session both engaging and enlightening.
What stands out most about Tracy is her human touch: she is patient, approachable, and encouraging, creating a safe space where learning feels natural and achievable. She never made me feel alone on this journey instead, she walked beside me with kindness, constructive feedback, and genuine care.
Her professionalism is matched only by her sweetness as a human being. Tracy celebrates my successes as though they were her own, and she has a rare gift of spotting potential even when I doubt myself.
Thanks to Tracy’s guidance, I have not only completed my SVQ3 successfully, but I have also grown in confidence, resilience, and knowledge. She is a remarkable tutor and a wonderful person, truly an asset to any learner lucky enough to have her support.
