Course instructors at the Purley center…

Course instructors at the Purley center are great and very knowledgeable, especially Stewart. As someone with no previous electrical experience be prepared to put in a lot of work out of hours and do not expect the course to be easy. That being said you get out what you put in and I am very happy to have chosen Options Skills. Also, one day after finishing my course James from Options was able to get me an interview leading to a job which really was the icing on the cake! Options has helped me go from someone with no prior experience to an employed electricians mate in just 6 weeks! Thanks guys.

The worst company I have dealt with

The worst company I have dealt with. They are small and do not have enough qualified accessors to check people work/ portfolios. You will end up chasing them through all your project work for the answers. There are a few other training providers around you should consider first before you handed money over to them.
