“I had a really nice tutor which has kept me in the loop and helped me pick up when I fell behind. I feel more capable of searching for jobs and knowing how to apply in the civil service sector.”
“I wasn't sure what to expect when I started my training course but the tutor and the course itself was very helpful. I'd definitely recommend taking a course with them.”
“I found the course good but over theoretical with the course work. I work in the field of Warehouse and Reuse Centre Assistant.
It seems like whoever set the course has little or no actual hands on experience.”
Hi Michael! Thank you so much for joining us on the course, and then for taking the time to leave a review. You are indeed correct - the course is indeed ‘knowledge-based' course which is about theory and knowledge. It is therefore not a 'skills-based' course, which would incorporate hands on experience. Wishing you the very best from us all!
“I had a great time taking this course as I had a wonderful tutor who was very welcoming and helpful in giving plenty of support when I needed it, with lots of opportunities to ask questions and talk about real-life examples which all made for a really enjoyable and informative course. Thank you Strive team!”
“The warehouse and lofty drive course was really good for providing good information and insights in to the workings of this industry. The tutor was really good at bringing a group together and for encouraging folks coming all walks of life, to learn skills they will need when seeking employment and furthering careers ambitions. There’s something here for everyone. Well done. :)”
“Hi, I have to say that I found this course and our tutor Funmi Tuyo (with help from Tina) to be absolutely brilliant, Funmi was very caring towards us as a group, always asking if we had questions/helping us on the way as we had a mixed class of skills and abilities but a lovely fun bunch of people. I think Strive Training are great.”
“I found this course to be very beneficial to me. It has allowed me to gain knowledge and confidence in the areas required. I'm extremely grateful to Strive Training, my tutor Jonathan Bestwick and all others involved for forwarding me this opportunity. It's greatly appreciated. Thank you”
“I completed the Level 2 Certification, creating a business start-up with Antonia Kyriacou. I highly recommend this course and believe it should be available to everyone considering starting a business. What impressed me the most was the exceptional level of knowledge, care, passion and energy provided by the tutor. Antonia went above and beyond what was required, showing exceptional dedication and commitment to her students' learning and equipping them with the necessary skills to succeed in their ventures. She made the time to get to know us individually and provide a vast amount of personalised feedback.
Additionally, she created a positive and supportive group dynamic that fostered continued mutual support outside the course. The course struck a very good balance between theory and practical application, effectively breaking down complex subjects such as tax and accounting into easily understandable concepts. Antonia also displayed remarkable diligence in ensuring our understanding of legal business requirements.
As someone with dyslexia, I greatly appreciated the various teaching methods employed to enhance my learning and comprehension. I was very surprised by the course content and delivery - and it surpassed all of my expectations.
In terms of what I got from the course, The course provided comprehensive answers to all of my questions regarding starting a business. It effectively clarified terms and procedures that I had long been confused about or hesitant to approach. Additionally, it offered valuable post-course resources. Participating in the course also boosted my confidence as I could understand well the subject matter and complete the tasks.
I am genuinely surprised that this crucial information is not taught in schools or readily provided by the government to assist all start-ups, as it is truly indispensable.”
“The course provided by Strive was exactly what I needed to conduct effective job searches and job applications specific to my skills. it also helps me understand the importance and different types of CVs used to apply for jobs.
The training modules were well-balanced and the Tutor was well-knowledgeable and tutored to a very high standard, many examples and supporting info were provided.
I would recommend this course to anyone regardless of their skills and knowledge.”
“Coming to the training I didn't know what to expect. However, it exceeded my expectations. This is such a valuable asset to anyone looking for the right job that they aspire to. The whole experience was very enjoyable and armed me with the tools that I was looking for. My takeaway from the course is, the content is excellent and so valid and useful, and the trainers both Fumni and Christina were exceptional and so helpful. I am so much more confident that I do not have to just settle and I can aim for bigger and better in my search for a job. So can't thank Strive Training enough, right from the start I was kept up to date with information at the start and throughout the course. I would highly recommend this course.”
“Such a great course!

“The course was not what I originally thought it would be about, however it was very informative, the tutor - Funmi was exceptionally helpful and took time to listen to each participant and support the accordingly. Funmi's assistant Tina, was also really supportive as we were a very large group, who were all at different levels of learning.
Thanks to both of them.”
