My last review six days ago.

I thought we had reached rock bottom ,but unfortunately it has gotten worse.

Two of our guys resat tests on Saturday ( no fault of their own )
Construction helpline booked them,

When they arrived at the test centre one was refused

Excellent teaching

My experience of drylining was very good. Ray's teaching was good and understandable. We learnt a lot of good things to remember and stuff that comes in good use in near future.

Drylining made easy

The experience was eye opening, with anything new to learn at every turn. The tutor was spot and always open to discussion, any issue that arose whilst learning was dealt with in a swift and simple manner and the skills acquired are priceless. Thank you for the opportunity.
