Great facilities exactly what was needed to gain experience. Lectures didn't seem to want to veer from their script. When asking questions it seemed like a hassle and most the time didnt get a clear answer from Norman. Practical was good equipment but it was so slow going around you never got a full go of isolating and restoring just one or the other. While eddies group seemed to have a full go themselves. More information could be added to the training folders as info seems to be missed that is spoken about on the power points. Coffee/tea and food all good and plenty of breaks to break up the day.

Great venue! Lots of equipment from various ages! Great to work and learn on equipment that we have at our workplace site and also see and work on equipment that I have never seen before. Lecturers were very good. Very experienced and know their stuff! A good laugh too! Answered any questions I had with good detail and explanation. Will come back to do the S4 and would recommend the course to my colleagues
