The continuous follow of the learning…

The learning advisers' ongoing follow-up. Since juggling training and work was no easy task, it was good to have someone monitoring my progress. In addition, I was able to better handle some difficulties I was facing at the time thanks to the assignments.

Level 3 End Point Assessors Award Feedback

The information/content was clear and easy to follow.

The content was extremely informative and I enjoyed doing the practical EPAs as this gave clarity and further understanding in practical terms. This practice allowed me to analyse my own strengths and weaknesses going forward in my learning, and ability to do the role of an EPA in real time.

The delivery and structure of content was spot on and both tutors were professional in manner.
The end of lesson/module questions were both relevant and extremely helpful in terms of preparation for the end of course CPD test.

I really appreciated the flexibility of the course as I was able to compete the course in relation to my own commitments. Content could be accessed and revisited at any time which was really beneficial.

CAVA completed

CAVA completed! The course was great and support is excellent! I wanted to complete the CAVA as quickly as possible which is what makes Brooks & Kirk the best option, as working at my own pace meant I achieved it in 3 months and they even provided the learners! Supportive, professional and motivational, brilliant!

The very best training providers in the UK

When I was looking into enrolling into the CAVA assessor qualification I had a look at several companies that provide the training and qualifications for the CAVA. I contacted Brooks and Kirk and I was so pleased that I did.
From the enrollment right the way through the course the entire team have been so supportive. I have had regular contact to ensure that I was making progress, the course materials were easy to understand and access on the Brooks and Kirk website. The online tutorials were very helpful and informative. I was able to study around my work and personal commitments and nothing was too much trouble for the tutors and Assessors. I had to resubmit some work and the feedback I received was very positive and clearly highlighted the areas where I needed to amend or add more information. I had the privilege of meeting the Brooks and Kirk team in person at their London office and I was made to feel so welcome. All the staff were excellent, friendly, professional efficient and extremely knowledgeable. I am looking to complete my level 5 diploma in management and leadership in health and social care as part of my career development. Once I have completed this course I will be looking to complete the IQA course and I will be contacting Brooks and Kirk to complete this. If anyone is looking to pursue a career in assessing then pick up the phone and contact Brooks and Kirk. I cannot speak highly enough and I highly recommend them as a company. Thank you B&K you are all amazing.

Enrol now, you won't regret it!

I've completed a number of courses with Brooks and Kirk, so much so I've met the whole team! I can't recommend them enough as a provider. Whether it's support via email or on the phone. During my lead IQA course Laura was exceptional in support. I also love how I could complete modules at my own pace. My colleagues completed IQA with another provider and they all wish they studied with Brooks and Kirk after they saw the quality of the materials and support.

You can't get a better company to help you achieve your goal!

Fantastic company they really put the extra effort in to make you comfortable. I was apprehensive as it was complelt new but I soon settled due to the amazing support I received. You can go at your own pace which was perfect for me. The feedback is supportive and extremely helpful. If you want an assessor course or an education and training. I can't rate them any higher.

Level 3 CAVA course with Brookes and Kirk

Doing a qualification with Brooks and Kirk has been a very positive experience; they always communicated clearly, and they offered support at every step of the way. Their virtual learning environment worked well; the in-person session was well organised, well paced, and extremely useful.

Professional & helpful

Brooks & Kirk can provide learners so you can complete a CAVA qualification, without having to be in an assessing role beforehand. Everyone was very supportive, super friendly and professional. I enjoyed my trip to the office to complete my face to face training, I was nervous but they all put me at ease immediately.

Highly Recommended

Last year, I made the decision to enroll in courses with Brooks and Kirk, and it turned out to be the best decision for my career advancement. The team at Brooks and Kirk was extremely helpful from the beginning, offering guidance on which courses to take and providing me with the right support. The assessors were attentive, constantly checking to see if I needed any assistance or guidance, and providing me with prompt feedback. Despite taking two courses simultaneously, I did not feel overwhelmed or pressured as the assessors and IQAs were always available to support and guide me. I would like to express my gratitude to Laura, Dan, and Rebecca for their invaluable support and guidance, with Laura even going the extra mile to help me prepare for a job interview, which I was able to secure before completing my courses. Based on my positive experience, I highly recommend Brooks and Kirk and look forward to taking more qualifications with them in the future.

Brooks and Kirk is a fantastic course provider! It was a rewarding experience to complete their CAVA course from the beginning to the end. A team of very experienced professionals support every stage of the course. Everyone I spoke with, from the call centre team to the assessor team, was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Throughout the course, every team member provided excellent support and answered all my questions promptly, making me feel more relaxed. I highly recommend Brooks and Kirk. Among all the courses I have taken, this was my best.
