‘The course was really educational; I have 2 years of customer service experience but I still learnt so much from it. My tutor was really helpful throughout the whole process and made me aware that she was there to help, even during out of work hours.’

‘This was a really good course. Even though I had done customer service training before this was more in-depth and covered a vast area of customer service which I know will be transferable to any job I go to.’
