What others are saying

“What has been achieved through the Lean Manufacturing apprenticeship reflects not only the drive and skills of our team members, but also the benefits available when we engage in lean and waste elimination projects. I am very excited as we continue to work with the team to foster a culture of waste elimination and efficiency. Thank you to everyone involved.”

“My Learning Portal has so many advantages: Snapshot of group progress, learner sees all their work in one place & progress via own dashboard, workbooks links sent to group in one click and standardised workbooks & improvement suggestions easily facilitated. It means the tutor has immediate access to learner work and the efficiencies give tutor time to focus on learner support & formative/summative assessment, rather than administration. Many learners remark on improvement in their own IT skills. MLP has transformed our delivery and the learner experience, taking it to the next level!”

“This course was very helpful and the way it was explained made it all the easier – I would highly recommend this course.” (Google Review: 5 Stars October 2026)

“Cidori are clearly an end-to-end provider of support from the desperation of unemployment to the security of a job. It is a shame that their diligence could not be instilled in the mainstream unemployment infrastructure – they are how employment help should be…”

Jonathan Chalmers

Construction Skills Course – Barnet Southgate College

“I liked learning about various types of tools, materials, lifting apparatus, and safe practices when working on construction sites. I would recommend this course to others since it provides valuable information that has enabled me to develop my understanding of the subject areas of construction health and safety, manual handling, and safe working practices.”
