How this company uses Trustpilot
See how their reviews and ratings are sourced, scored, and moderated.
The course material (Pet Bereavement Counselling) is very outdated, especially with regards to ethology and human-animal interaction. I have written numerous emails to request feedback, but complete silence from their side.
Can anyoe tell me if why Blackford Centre telephone number is not working?
I am looking for a reference but no answer. I sent an email but no reply. I have called several times, the line does not work.
Can anyone help me?
I've completed my foot health practioner course and have tried to reach the blackford center by telephone, email and a sending a message on the website. The telephone numbers available are not working or are no longer in use. The emails and message has not been responded to. I'm growing increasingly concerned as I can see other people reviewing the blackford centre on trust pilot who have also been ignored and finding it impossible to make contact with the company. The courses are a significant amount of money and if I don't hear anything soon will be getting in touch with my bank and taking legal action under section 75 to get my money back. Please respond as soon as possible so I can move on from this situation. Please send my certificate of course completion if you are satisfied that I have passed the required assignments.
The course taught me a lot for a future in herbalism and was very informational and thorough however getting a merit is hard when you don't get full tutor feedback on all assignments. Overall the course is great! And would recommend.
I have been attempting to get in touch with The Blackford Centre to no avail regarding my course that I paid for. After numerous emails still no response. I paid but no way of reaching this institution.
Please let me know how to contact you as you have my money for course and I can’t reach you.
I am unable to get access to my course and the telephone number given, 01373 800815 is stated as not recognised. i have had no response from my email.

After buying the course, the learning materials arrived without delay. Although I haven't begun the actual course yet, I've finished the necessary readings. I'm certain that the instructions will be incredibly helpful as I move forward. I'm prepared and thrilled to get started!
Good reputation. Excellent course materials, full course support and extra support and tips to potentially set up a business.

The course is clear and straightforward. Straight to the point in an intelligible way. I am very busy with other work and music commitments so have somewhat stalled.

I've come back to the course after a long break. The transition was seamless and without hiccup. The course contents are comprehensive and cover everything needed to set yourself up in copywriting. The contents are easily navigable and the provider is only a phone call or email away. I look forward to the rest of the course.

I enjoyed the content of the course and learnt a lot. The course content covers a broad spectrum. I appreciated the fact that it focuses a lot on more common herbs. Being older, I was glad to receive a printed copy of the course.
Communication with The Blackford Centre and their administration was also very good! Thank you Emma!

(Herbalist)The journey through each module has been incredibly enriching. I appreciated how the course combined traditional knowledge with modern understanding, allowing me to connect deeply with the healing power of plants. The structure was clear, and the assignments helped me apply what I learned in a practical and meaningful way.
