What others are saying
“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
“I decided to start the apprenticeship as I wanted to gain a qualification that would directly benefit my current role and my future career. I am always trying to find better ways of working, for myself and the teams that I manage, and this course will help to put some structure around that process, therefore making it more efficient.”
Jenny Conroy
Team Leader
Level 4 Improvement Practitioner Apprenticeship – Altro
“I joined Cidori for the opportunity to be part of a growing organisation where I can make a real impact. It gives me the chance to build relationships, shape opportunities with employers, and contribute to something that’s still evolving, which was really important to me.”
Matt Drury
Business Development Manager
“I have loved every part of this course, it truly has taught me so much I felt like I was supported so well with any questions I have had. I would 110% recommend this course to others, I have actually recommended it to my friend as I have truly enjoyed it.”
Kayleigh Baker
Barnet Southgate College
Teaching Assistant Course
“Course was entertaining and knowledgeable but most importantly after finishing I’ve secured a job in a short while.”
Denis Bogonos
Construction Skills Course – Barnet Southgate College
“I have learned so many new skills through this course, but most importantly it gave me the confidence to believe in myself and recognise the value of the skills I already had. I never thought I would be able to achieve something like this because I didn’t have any qualifications, but within three months of completing the course I secured a Teaching Assistant role. I am now back in work, have a career I enjoy, and a better routine and future for both me and my son. It really is one of the best things I have ever done.”
