I would recommend Estio as an IT apprenticeship provider. We are extremely pleased!
Buttercups Training is a forward thinking, quality conscious company that sets and meets high standards consistently.
Firebrand balanced being incredibly fast with the reassurance that they're an official Cisco Learning Specialized Partner. So, everything was official: the labs, courseware, and instructor.
It's unbelievable how Firebrand help you learn so quickly. All courses led to certification so we had proof that the students learnt everything they could on the course.
Estio were first class in their delivery we are 100% confident that when we look to expand, Estio will be our default partner of choice.
I was extremely impressed with the level of service and training provided. We would choose no other provider over Buttercups.
I was impressed by the comprehensive courses offered by DMI. The specialisation was particularly beneficial.
It's never fully done and that's one of the main reasons we sought a digital industry partner like DMI. It's different every year and you must stay on top of it
I put a great deal of trust in the expertise of BPP who've always demonstrated a great appetite in understanding our business and how we translate these into successful apprenticeship programmes.
BPP already had the infrastructure in place to cope with the demand from the business as Mazars continues to grow, understanding the importance of future skills.
