Enrolling the course

This course I found on Facebook, I had applied for it. Brooke Turner contacted me the next day following that. At that time I was not able to speak with her and then I asked her to ring me back a different day. She is a very polite, helpful woman. Brooke had rung me back on a convenient time. She had answers to my questions and concerns related to the course and gave me a time to think if I’m ready for it, to make a final decision. On the day that I had applied for a course, Brooke was very nice, friendly, chatty and helpful. I enjoyed speaking with her and she made me feel very confident in entering this course. Thanking her very much for her help and support.

I called to enquire about my Access course, and Peter was very helpful and explained everything about the course clearly. I experienced some payment issues, but Peter was extremely kind, understanding, and patient throughout the process. He took the time to explain everything and patiently waited while I sorted out the problem. I really appreciate his excellent customer service and support. Thank you, Peter
