Our students love us

I took a couple of training courses through ICS; they were really good, the content of the courses were very useful and the trainer has great knowledge and delivered it in a way that it was easy to understand

Clare was hands down the best trainer I have ever worked with. Her knowledge, professionalism and presentation skills are simply world class. Her examples were very relevant and I gained a lot from the course. She also did a good job in simplifying difficult material and made the approach easy to follow. Highly recommend to anyone.

I recently completed the BRC Risk Assessment and the Root Cause Analysis courses with ICS. I must say the course materials were excellent and the Trainer Clare was in a class of her own, very knowledgeable and interesting. I feel I got real value from the 2 courses and now manage RCA within a team at my work place.
