Why learners, employers and our partners love us

“The social media training has gone beyond my expectations. We have seen a 50% increase in
business year on year.”

“This course was the best decision I ever made and I wish I’d known about it sooner”

“Thanks to TCHC’s hard work and perseverance, my son Thomas has been accepted at college to do mechanics which is his dream. A big thank you to your wonderful hard working team, who have gone over and beyond.”

“I had genuinely believed after being made redundant that the opportunity to build my own academy and curriculum would not come my way again. I had resigned myself that I might have to accept my career would take a step back, given my age and very deflating feelings. The training was of very high quality I learned a lot of valuable knowledge that improved my delivery and curriculum knowledge. It has enabled me to reboot my career and I have found a new role as Head of Technology Training. This type of programme genuinely change people’s lives.”

 “My staff are very proud of what they have achieved, especially one member of staff who felt at the beginning that she shouldn’t be on the training, but as a result of the training is more aware of the residents needs and is putting what she has learnt into practice”

“The customer services training has helped in my day to day role while interacting with clients. I’ve enjoyed the training as we’ve completed it as a group and its always been delivered clearly and friendly. I feel more confident when speaking to clients over the phone and face to face. It’s helped me to deal with tricky customers.”

“I’ll be forever grateful to everyone who has helped and supported me while I have been
attending this programme”

"All the courses I have done, gave me more knowledge. I am currently doing relaxation, it’s having a positive impact on my anxiety and I do think it will help me mentally for the future"
