Great course and everything was above expectation which made my experience a great one. Andy & Ged are great tutors with several years of experience between them which made learning the theory and practical really easy. Connor was also a great tutor when teaching us the practicals and the theory side of switching, very impressed. would definitely recommend this course!

This course was a fantastic overview on all aspects of HV. The instructors were extremely knowledgeable and answered any and all questions I had, even on a few occasions staying back after the class had finished for the day and taking us out and giving us a talk through and demonstration on things I didn't fully understand. I have finished the course and come away with an extremely better understanding, technically and practically in all areas of HV. Also not mentioned in the summery ratings we had a third instructor (Connor) who again was as helpful and knowledgeable.

A very well structured course which had a great balance of practical & classroom based tuition/ exercises. Russ & Eddie were excellent tutors and their vast experience was very apparent. The Faraday Centre made a great training facility, modern, clean & well organised. Food choices were very good & refreshments available throughout the day. The vast array of high voltage switchgear was impressive & it gave a chance to operate equipment not normally seen. Highly recommended & once again thanks to Russ & Eddie for the excellent delivery of the course throughout the week.

The course was well structured, informative with the right mix of theoretical and practical work throughout. The lecturers were engaging, interesting, experienced and knowledgeable and made the weeks course a pleasure. They worked excellently together and kept the class engaged with their life experiences which were topical, educational and often very funny! All too often courses such a this can be made dry, stale and uninteresting but this was not the case and I looked forward to each day! The Faraday Centre made a excellent training facility with spacious Seminar Rooms, refreshments throughout the day, together with personalised good quality lunch. There was a vast array of High Voltage Switchgear which we could operate, of which, some candidates, like myself had not worked or seen before. The lecturers demonstrated/explained the operation of the switchgear with clarity such that operation, during the examination, was straightforward. Thank you Russ and Eddie for making the training so enjoyable yet engaging.
