Technique Training Ltd Reviews

Glad I came on the course, learnt loads of new things and the tutor (Simon) was very helpful and passed on a lot of knowledge

Simon is a excellent tutor. Makes the course content enjoyable and his underpinning knowledge of the subject is outstanding.

Great course. Simon Baker is a great instructor. The tasks were challenging and educational. Learned a few new things. The centre should consider a socket system that is permanently connected to the test panels. This will accommodate much quicker connection and disconnection. May be include a few tasks with more sensors integrated.

My tutor simon baker went above and beyond with the course and the knowledge he provided he is a fantastic tutor and extremely helpful I can’t thank him enough

Great course , instructor delivered exceptionally.

The course I did was the PLC 5 Day Course, Arsham was very supportive given my lack of knowledge with working with PLCs (I am old school Relay logic). At first I struggled with the tech', but Arsham must have noticed this and really helped me achieve my goals. Thank you and kind regards Simon

Overall a great course. Having no prior knowledge to PLCs, I found the concepts easy to follow and a good pace with which to progress. Additionally to the equipment provided, another monitor could aid the user with the ability to follow along with the tutor.

I recently attended PLC 10 Day Course ran by Elliot. Elliot's expertise and knowledge made the learning experience enjoyable and informative. I gained valuable insights and skill that i can apply in my field. Highly recommended.

Elliot is a brilliant teacher and mentor. I would very much like to return to expand on my learning during the past 2 weeks. Thank you Elliot.

Elliott Kensdale is a lovely tutor and has been teaching from maybe 20 years or more. He has good knowledge about the PLC and relevant topics. On the other hand, On the first day, it felt like he was just reading the slides and hardly much enthusiasm. Ideally, the students should be introduced what they will be learning for next 5 days. On the first day, we felt like..."Oh dear have we done a mistake by coming, is it even worth". Second day (timers) was very intense. Third day was a bit better. Fourth day was good with practice questions. The another problem is "Carbon-di-oxide" in the room. We were 8 people in the room and outside temperature was ~0 degrees. The trainer will open the windows to ensure that the CO2 levels are adequate. Opening the windows in summer is good, in winter! Damn, we were getting trained in cold and wearing full jackets (usually supposed to be wore outside) inside. Even with that, it was cold, plus very cold in the feet (wearing clothes shoes). So, you can imaging training yourself learning about PLC in cold room. There were more chances of getting sick with cold rather than CO2 levels. Another good issue was timings. The Technique office is open till 1730 hours. However, as the trainer or the training timings are from 0900-1515 hours. You can't practice after 1515 hours. We were having difficulty understanding some concepts and wanted a peaceful quite time to practice the concepts. We requested the trainer multiple times to let us practice after 1515 hours but No. We came here to learn the concepts, become strong technical skills. All what was needed is power supply to the laptop and the PLC kit. We did say, we will shut down it but No. If we can't practice what we learn (after hours and within office timing, what's the point). We were here to learn rather than just gain a certification. Also, when asked about the PLC10, 15 course, he just mentioned we would learn some advance concepts, advance exercises. It would have helped us more if the trainer tells that what is covered in next steps rather than just generic stuff. In short, we would generally not recommend the course, until the improvements are made. You can probably learn way more online rather than in-person. The students learn more by themselves (self-teaching) rather than any influential input from the trainer. The only USP is that they (trainer) provide a kit to practice and some questions set.
