Did you know 85% of the training and qualifications we provide take place at employers sites or for groups? There are ways that we can do this, depending on the site facilities and equipment available Last week we were in Dorset near beautiful Lulworth cove and Aberystwyth (not quite the same, but we still love it), the week before that Oldbury, Narberth and Machynlleth!
Photo to make you all jealous! We do get to see some stunning sites.
