Discrimination

I tried to contact them through their customer care number, but the representative kept hanging up on me. It seemed like she might have done so because of my Indian accent. I won’t be going back to this training center.

Great Experience

I recently attended the 18th Edition course at TradeSkills4U Coventry and successfully passed. The course was well-structured, and the training slides were clear and easy to follow.

A special commendation to the instructor, who was highly knowledgeable, engaging, and made complex topics easy to understand. Their teaching style kept the sessions interactive and informative, ensuring we were well-prepared for the exam.

Highly recommended for anyone looking to complete their 18th Edition qualification!

Poor quality time invested in learners…

Poor quality time invested in learners sitting in lesson. Tutor seemed to use the time as a well sought after relaxation / getting on with other work he had lying around from before. Literally the brand keeping them going now, this is from someone who first did courses through them over 10 years ago. Dont bother writing in feedback - they will use it to show you how clever they can sound within the reply, (they don't care about feedback)

Brilliant experience 👍🏻

The name put me off at first (it’s changing) and I went with another company to do my experienced worker qualification…(XS) biggest mistake ever. 2 years no help and a complete waste of money and time.

So paid again with this company and once I had my tutor I was done within 3 weeks, so professional. So much help and you aren’t left in the dark with vague list, or thousands of pointless photos, or left guessing where you are because they never update your progress.

I’m an ex royal engineer as an electrician and out for 15 year full scope NICEIC, had to do this course as my route to a gold card was closed.

My assessor was from Nottingham and I couldn’t recommend this guy (don’t know if I’m allowed to mention his name) or company enough for people in my situation.

Excellent Training Warrington

I wanted to take a moment to highlight the outstanding training experience I’ve had with Steven. His guidance and expertise have been invaluable in my growth and development. Steven not only brings a high level of professionalism to each session but also shows genuine enthusiasm and a deep commitment to ensuring his trainees succeed.

His approachability, clarity, and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure that all aspects of the training are understood truly set him apart. It is rare to find someone with such a combination of knowledge, patience, and motivational skills.

I believe Steven’s efforts have made a significant positive impact on my performance, and I wanted to make sure his contributions were recognized.

I would wholeheartedly recommend TS4U for any future training and would be more than happy to work with him again.

Thank you for having such an exceptional trainer on your team.

What a shambles

What a shambles! Lets begin with the customer service phone line, they answer as city & guilds training, I say sorry I was trying to contact Trade skills 4 u, but they insist that they are city & guilds training, even though everything is branded trade skills 4 u. I have been asked to attend a half day online segment before I attend the 3 day course - that wasn't advertised, I call, they say its a mistake ignore it (everyone in the class had the same). The class its self had a tutor that keeps making mistakes and keeps sniffing his nose, the toilet is just outside the classroom and the door bangs every 5 minutes, meanwhile the wall & projector are vibrating because someone is hammering in the room next door all day long, we get told about an online help page, that I was not informed about beforehand, I inform them, but nothing is done. Homework is to go home and do a practice paper covering everything that we havent done yet, plus a couple more (they allow 2 hours each) How do I fit that in? thats just day one...

Plus I had enrolled on an NVQ (now going to get a refund), have the initial meeting, send off my enrolment form and hear nothing else, when I chase it up I'm told that that person left, Ill have to do it again - the only people to talk to about it are the other end of the country and give the distinct impression of not being bothered. Im going for a refund and going to another provider - Good luck if you opt for them whoever they are calling themselves

STILL NO CERTIFICATE FOR 3 PART ELECTRICIANS COURSE COMPLETED IN FEB 2022

I started July 2021 and completed feb 2022 the 3 part ELECTRICIAN COURSE. I have yet to receive my certificate. The instructors were generally very good apart from the FINAL INSTRUCTOR who oversaw the final project unfortunately. He was obviously out of his depth and NEVER marked my final course despite many emails and phone calls. We as a group waited for up to 2 months for results and ‘TRADESKILLS4U’ just kept passing the buck and putting the onus on the students, many of whom were trying to move onto their careers to sort this out. I myself went in twice, driving all the way from London to drop off ANOTHER copy of my project having already submitted the original. They (Tradeskills4u) obviously had their money for the course and just didn’t obviously care, despite FIRING the previously mentioned instructor for FAILING to do his job. Very disappointed.
