A first class team at Smart Training. Mick was a great tutor and a steady support for me during my Improvement Practitioner course. I would highly recommend Smart.

Absolute Joke of a company
Never again will we be enrolling any of our staff onto a apprenticeship with this company. The poor tutors get absolutely snowballed with work to the point we have had some many different tutors we don't know what's happening. Poor communication and how the hell can you complete the qualification with a learner in the health sector without actually visiting and doing observations???? I smell a rat.

Worst Apprenticeship Provider
Worst Apprenticeship Provider. They don’t actual care about their students, they just want to fob you off and get the money for the courses. My advice. Do not touch this company! It’s so unprofessional!
