I can imagine that working at William Smith is very rewarding, as everyone connected with our open day visit was amazing. Helpful, full of enthusiasm and the knowledge highly impressive. We need more business like this in the UK with true values of service to customers.

The William Smith Academy event was very well organised. The workshops were highly informative, complemented by several engaging lectures. As someone relatively new to the industry, I gained a great deal of knowledge and a deeper understanding of the products and services offered.
The atmosphere was welcoming, and the people were both friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, it was a valuable experience and I would definitely recommend attending future events.

I attended their Kitchen Application course back in June and cannot say how much they put into the training. We had three instructors across the 2 days, plus other members of staff also giving advice.
Since then i have attended two other training days put on by the company, One in Watford called the A-Team which was very informative, and recently the Open day at their HQ in Barnard Castle. It was to me a great informative day, meeting other people involved in Kitchen application industry who i had met at the previous meeting. Everyone was keen and helpful. It was not only for Architectural installers but also commercial installers and vehical wrappers.
They also laid on food and refreshments all day, and a casino evening for those customers who were staying in the local area. Thank you William Smith Group,

I recently attended an Open-Day at William Smith Group - which included some Academy training, which was extremely beneficial, the trainer was clear, precise and ensured that everyone in attendance was clear on the outcome. Its a warm, friendly environment and highly recommend!

I recently took part in the kitchen vinyl wrapping training with William Smith and was really impressed with the whole experience. The course was well structured, practical, and gave me the confidence to take on real jobs.
A special thanks to John, who was brilliant at demonstrating how to fit the vinyl. He explained everything clearly and shared loads of helpful tips from his own experience, which made a big difference.
Would definitely recommend this training to anyone looking to learn or improve their wrapping skills.

Great training day from everyone at William Smith, John and Kane tailored the training to suit everyone’s personal level and answered so many questions for me.

I recently completed the Kitchen Wrap Training Course and honestly, I can’t recommend it highly enough. The course itself was brilliant from start to finish – really well structured and packed with useful tips. The trainers were fantastic too: friendly, knowledgeable and always happy to share their experience.
What really stood out for me was the hands-on side of things. You’re not just watching – you’re actually doing, which makes such a difference. I came away feeling confident and excited to put everything I’d learned into practice.
If you’re thinking about taking this course, go for it – you’ll learn loads and really enjoy the process too!

Great course and brilliant instructors. Learned loads and really well worth it.

Amazing group of people, everyone is friendly and inviting. The training is top tier, there are few, if anyone else who have the level of experience and knowledge as the training team. They only use the best quality materials and have a wide range of them so you get to experience different brands and how their technologies differ. Again top teir in every aspect, i could not recommend enough.

I liked the course. I think there was a fair bit missed out tbh. I also think we should have access to the online videos. The fact we have to spend an extra £120 to access the videos is a big disappointment. An extra day of training would have been great. It was good but room to be a lot better.

Lots of 1 2 1 coaching and hand holding. Showed how to do it, but then individually came round and never felt rushed. Would recommend to anyone.
