What others are saying
“Fast paced and supportive – we really do make a difference – I supported a lady through a Teaching Assistant course. She was excited but nervous and needed reassurance – we kept in touch with job searches and one of the best things was getting a photo from her on her first day in her new job at a school – smiling away!”
Sally Bremner
IAG Officer
“It’s highly encouraging to see the main objectives of the programme have been successfully achieved and embraced by the entire team. We are excited to see how their newly developed skills continue to drive positive outcomes across the organisation.”
Phil Glover
Manufacturing Manager – Intersurgical
Lean Manufacturing Apprenticeship
We have worked with Cidori for several years and have found their service impeccable; the team are very professional and lovely to deal with. We have developed a great partnership in training good quality Teaching Assistants and finding them suitable employment once they have completed their course.
Jacqui Waters
Director, Cumbria Teaching Agency
“I absolutely would recommend this course – it was scary at first and I wondered if I would be ok with the written work but it not only gave me knowledge and understanding of what a Teaching Assistant does and what to expect in the role, it also showed me that I can do academic study and has improved my self esteem hugely.”
Tom Pearson
Teaching Assistant Course Candidate
Barnet Southgate College
“Our experience of working with construction skills candidates from the team at Cidori is amazing! They register a higher calibre of candidate, more motivated and better prepared for the construction workplace. For our team it is a genuine pleasure to work with Cidori and we look forward to supporting many more of their candidates as part of our continued collaboration.”
Rebecca Rickwood
Programme Director – Gement
“Our partnership with Cidori is successful as we work closely with the aim of progressing learners into work. Their employer engagement combined with our delivery results in exceptional outcomes for our learners.“
Christian Nicolaides
Director of Employer Partnerships, Barnet and Southgate College
