Some wiring details needs to be updated on diagram as adds to confusion. Paper copy of course notes should be included in the price. Both lectures delivered the course content extremely well. Course could be condensed to 4 days easily. Good variation of practical equipment.

Response: Thank you for your feedback, Robert. We will look into the course contents and make sure all the information is up to date. Due to our continuous efforts to be more environmentally friendly, we have moved from offering paper copies of our course notes to having a digital version saved on a USB drive that every candidate receives during the course. The paper copies are still available to purchase at any point during the course for an additional charge.

All in all a great course led by two great chaps.

I thought this course was really well run. Plenty of time operating the switchgear. i do think that on the first day the person with the passes in the car park should make themselves more obvious. He was stood in a hi-vis coat in the middle of a carpark full of people in hi-vis.

Venue cold, small tissues, no toilet roll in toilet, no electricity for hand dryers. Food average. Hotel, Holiday Inn, room smells, always aired and put AC on to get rid of smell. Clean room. Food average to dire. Special steak and ale pie, dire, all frozen food heated. Should not be called a special.

Also, not being able to take the course manual home unless you paid an extra £25. Never experienced this before, poor. Have got to print out everything myself to refer to notes.

Both lecturers were very knowledgeable regarding the HV subject and provided information, support and guidance throughout this course. Russel Burnett also provided light hearted humour and made the CBRE team feel comfortable and at ease whilst at the same time learning.

Couldn’t fault course venue, equipment and lecturers. However i believe the CBRE documentation could do with some improvements
