I had zero knowledge and wasn't confident at all. But the trainers, Tamer, John and Jora are excellent in explaining, especially with examples for a good understanding, they are very patient in teaching the practical skills and theory. Trainers are very lively and engage the class with fun. Higly advise this place. They also provide one-on-one practical class if required with no extra cost. Office staff are excellent too.

The two senior excavator teachers are respectful and helpful. The younger one has a quite juvenile and racially biased sense of humor that i don't share. I don' really care myself but i post it here hoping to make it a better world for my son to grow up in.

Having gone in with very limited knowledge, I've just been able to apply for my high risk work licence (LF)! The quality of the training is amazing, the content is explained well and the trainers are excellent - highly recommend (and I'll probably be going back for other courses too). 🙂Edit: I've since done my first aid and CPR training here and the quality of teaching is great too!
Having my First Aid and CPR completed today, the trainer made it easy and simple to understand. and also the environment was nice and clean. They provided coffee and tea also biscuits 🙂. Highly recommend.

The trainers are friendly and experienced, readily assisting us in answering our questions professionally. Despite having zero experience in driving a forklift, we found it surprisingly easy to grasp. Although the training place is a bit far from the city, it offers a comfortable environment and is well-equipped with amenities, including biscuits, coffee, and bottled water.
