So I took on a full electrical course. So far i have done my Level one Electrics, Part P Level 2, 18th Edition and PAT testing. Will soon be doing my Inspection and testing course. I had to take a while to find which training center to go with, however my work colleague recommended me this training center in which i signed up with. The training center has exceeded my expectations and they over delivered!
They were aware I had Autism and they paced their learning at my speed so I was able to understand everything that was being taught. Fantastic people and very friendly and to also give a big thanks to Kevin, Steve, Dave and Donna for all the help and overall enjoyed my time in the college. Great thing is they offer a variety of other trade courses which i found a few to be interested in so im considering to do later once I get my Electrical career on the move. I recommend this college to anyone who wants to get in the trade and will be sure to pass along anyone to this center who are looking to get into the trade. Thanks again!

Critical:Communication, Professionalism, Value Poorly organised, uninterested in the students and no respect or regard for your time. Happy to waste a whole day for you to achieve nothing. If you want a bit of paper with your name on quickly this is the place to go but don't expect to learn anything.

Con Artist, Rogue traders and threating when you ask for your money back when cancelling a course, suppose to be a professional company director and wants to fight people over a few hundred pounds. Do not go with these people, save your money and go to a normal College.
Don Willets (Level 1 Basic Plumbing Certificate).
The help and support the team gave me throughout my course was second to none, and I would happily recommend you to anyone looking to further their career and gain new qualifications.
Neil Lote (BPEC Domestic Natural Gas Foundation).
Walsall Training Centre offer a top class service that you'll find hard to beat anywhere else. They make the learning process a pleasure, and fully support you throughout your course.
