Co. GalwayI had a small group of participants who were not willing to train. After sitting down and discussing each learners feedback when the course was over I can confirm Sean was excellent. Literacy and learner anxiousness concerns were high. Sean engaged, encouraged and welcomed everyone regardless of experience, knowledge or previous qualifications. Sean is extremely experienced and has a massive personality

Co. CorkMy reluctant group of learners has asked to have Sean do more training. I’m due to roll over and in discussion to schedule another module because of this. In the past training was difficult getting the lads to attend while working with different trainers. It’s great to have the same trainer all the time. Thank you Sean I look forward to working with you in the future
