I completed my RSA, RCG, and ARCG courses here (both online and in-class) and overall they?ve been great. The trainers are absolutely amazing. I?m not usually one to leave reviews, but I have to say that Graham is the best trainer I?ve ever had. For the online ARCG course I took on Friday (13/12/24), I was quite nervous and lacked confidence, especially since I?m new to the industry. However, he made the lessons easy to follow and even helped us review the RCG material at the start, which made the ARCG much easier to grasp. Certificate arrived very quickly.
