“Some of the content was basic (ie steps to find a job or creating job alerts) asi feel most job seekers should know this already if they are actively looking. The insight provided by a speaker from the Civil Service was very useful and practical and so was the preperation for psychometric tests and writing a personal statement. I would like to see more insight into various roles and departments within the civil service as well as feedback on the various cultures within those departments.”
Many thanks for taking the time to leave such a comprehensive review Fleur! π It's great to hear that you found the authentic Civil Service insight to be so useful, and we hope it helps you with the next step in your career. Best of luck! ππ

“I felt over all the training recieved was good. The tutor explaned things will, although I found he went a little too quickly for me to keep up. I would have like more thinking time with the multi-answer questions. But this wasn't a major issue as I had the time to go back and complete the answers.”

“On the short amount the course last for it does provides good knowledge and insight that are useful to starting out or further improve knowledge and skills”
“The fast-paced nature of the course and the pressure on the tutor create challenges for candidates who may struggle to express themselves fully. At times, it feels as though the system prioritizes efficiency over individual learning needs. While technology and structured systems are meant to support us, it is important to ensure they enhance, rather than hinder, the human experience in learning.”
“This is a review for the onlive course - Level 3 Certificate in Cyber Security Practices (NCFE). Paola was a very patient, empathetic and knowledgable tutor. The subject matter was delivered professionally and covered depth that could be applied in the real world. It was a difficult task ensuring all learners of mixed abilities remained engaged, on-track and felt supported. Paola managed this perfectly. Well done Paola!
It remains to be seen whether potential employers value and recognise the certification but I am defintely more confident armed with the new knowledge and skills.”
Thank you for leaving your positive review of our new Cyber Security course! π We really appreciate you taking the time to share your honest feedback, all of which we take on board. Good luck with your next steps! π
“Overall, the course was okay, but it included too much theoretical information and repetition. The ideal approach would be a balance of theory and practice. While I understand this is a Level 3 course, it lacked technical skills. By the end, I was left questioning the real value we can add to a company with just a basic understanding of cybersecurity. In todayβs world, AI provides easy access to information, so the course should focus more on practical application to truly enhance our skills”

“The course was excellent. It touched on every aspect of working as a Civil Servant for the UK Government. Our coach Jonathan was informative, clear and professional. He was able to focus and the result of each of the team members which enabled us I believe to provide the best outcome possible. That helps me to stay focused on the task in order to provide a great outcome. I will definitely promote this course around me.
Thank you to all the team. You all contributed to the success of this course..”
