"Had Graham today for the RSA course. He was very thorough and educational. Gave great support to ensure we had learn everything needed to successfully complete all the assessments. Highly recommended:) The costumer service staff were also very good to speak with. They helped me re schedule to a different day when I couldn't make it in. Highly recommended doing short courses here."
