They have both been excellent courses with very good instructors, and the communication with the organisers are second to none. A special thanks to Melody who kept me up to date and informed on my upcoming training!

Samson did not directly provide the training but I found them easy and reliable to deal through they found a course provider to best suit my requirements. I really enjoyed the course and the course instructor through her own experience was able to provide real life examples of Health and Safety Issues. There was interaction with Q & A’s between different sections of the course which kept the course interesting.
