Attendees particularly value the knowledgeable, patient trainers, who explain complex technical subjects clearly, adapt to different experience levels and connect theory with practical, real-world work. They describe courses as well structured, engaging and supportive, with a relaxed learning environment, helpful staff, clear joining information and well-prepared facilities. Learning builds confidence for assessments and day-to-day tasks. Some find the pace intense and would welcome more time for practical work.

could have had more hands on, if another fuse board ( did not have to be live ) for people to connect up the DC cables. So need at least one more rack with fused may be two.

All the course was run well from start to finish and all the staff were very helpful and had very good knowledge of the subject. The course trainer delivered it well and I actually found the course informative although some of it had nothing to do with us but still interesting

I appreciate there is a balance between passing the exam and learning the course content. In my opinion the course was too much waited towards passing the exam. I wanted to deepen my understanding of BS7671 and that wasn't achieved as much as I hoped. I appreciate that in 3 days there is not a lot of time.

The Documents/Forms used were out of date and did not reflect the current forms in the IET EVC Code of Practice and on the ENA website which I presumed we were studying. Given that I attended this course to refresh following the 18th Edition changes this was very disappointing and defeated the object. The incorrect DNO Form was being used (there was no reference to the service capacity been verified by the DNO? You must verify the service capacity with the relevant DNO prior to installation if MD > 60 Amps. The incorrect Annexchecklists and RA's were being referenced (Annex D forms were issued for On-Street works when this is now covered by Annex C etc). This is no slight on the trainer who was able to assist in questions as they arose and led the training well.

Response: Dear Gareth Thank you for your comments. The forms provided on the course are the standard assessment forms provided by City and Guilds which unfortunately have not been updated since the introduction of the 3rd edition of the IET COP. We have taken immediate action following your comments to update our forms to be in-line with the latest COP and will be contacting city and guilds to do likewise. I sincerely apologise that this meant the course did not meet your objectives. I have arranged for a full reimbursement of your course fees.

I would have liked a bit of practical work or some demonstrations on the equipment also I felt there was a bit too much time spent on batteries for us and the work we do.
