H Ali Top Trainer
Attended the Signing, Lighting & Guarding course at the Citrus Head Office. It was an enjoyable day, considering I hadn’t attended a classroom course in about 3 years. It was enjoyable down to the trainer we had, Mr. Hussein Ali, He was amazing, very knowledgeable, and most of all very entertaining! He had a perfect balance of being serious and accommodating in delivering his knowledge and being funny and honest also. Great lad! Credit to Citrus!!

Big thank you to Marc Groenenberg
I recently completed my Level 6 NVQ in Construction Contracting Operations Management with Citrus Training, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the experience.
A huge thank you to my tutor, Marc Groenenberg, who was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. His support, knowledge, and guidance made the whole process smooth and far less daunting than I expected. He was always available when I needed help, kept me on track, and explained everything clearly.
Thanks to Marc’s dedication and encouragement, I was able to complete the qualification in just 4 months, which exceeded my expectations.
I genuinely couldn’t recommend him or Citrus Training more highly to anyone looking to progress their career in construction. A brilliant experience all round.

Completed the SMSTS course this week with Paul Lefrere.
The information provided by the training centre and the tutor over the 5 day period was plenty to get you through the exam at the end and it was delivered in a way which made you learn. Course content was good and tutor engaged everyone and encouraged people to share their own stories to make it more relatable.
Overall good training provider and good course.
Completed confined space training recently and booked on a work at height course in the near future.
Good training provider with everything you require on site too.
