“The training itself was exceptional: A higher level of job searching and applications, mixed with Assessment criteria I'd never seen before.
Unfortunately, the online group scenario I found distracting, while balancing different windows, typing input and simultaneously following instructions as I'm less able than most with IT skills.”

“Really detailed and intense course. I felt quite confident at the end in applying for jobs. The tutor, Charlene , was clear in instructions aswell as entertaining. Highly recommend”
“The course has been very informative for me. In that it has given me the confidence to apply for roles that closely match my hard and soft skills.
The trainer, Trina Brady has made the learning very easy to understand and kept it lively, and very supportive.”
“- Information was great and easy to understand.
- Provided great support from the teacher who was willing to answer all questions very well.
- Can come away from this experience feeling prepaired for work searching and the interview process.”
“The Tutor is unacceptable. Very Rude and not diplomatic!
You ask questions and she talks about her Alexa and she says i can't waste my time repeating. I feel very demoralised, you raise your hand several times and she doesnt answer, she sends you emails and they bounce back, communication is bad and when you say bare with me my emails are on cue, she doesn't want to listen. She says she got no time”
“This is the most comprehensive, practical, target driven course I have been on. Despite my previous experience as a Company director, what I’ve learnt from this course has dramatically improved my understanding of the workplace and the tools required for sustainable employability. Carlene is amazing!”
“Course was excellent in terms of information, outline and delivery. It helped me to get up to date with my CV, other preparation ideas and tools which makes me more confident to approach my job applications. Understanding the systems and processes was great to know. Delivery and interactions were done very well. Not one minute of boredom. Excellent! Will highly recommend.”
“I enjoyed it, learned lots of things i didn't know.
The only regret is my internet and sound wasn't up to scratch so i could not fully participate with the course”
“It's a fantastic course and I have learnt a lot about the civil service even though I don't plan to go into the civil service there is still plenty to learn from all walks of life from better methods for searching for jobs all the way to interview stages. When I herd the work "course" I didn't think much at first because I have had a few bad instances but it was more like a normal conversation most of the time and my tutor Roz is fantastic at bringing a natural feel to the sessions. 5/5 would recommend it to others.”
“Very good course the tutor was so helpful with everything she taught us. We had lots of 1-1 if you needed them as there was also another tutor who was also amazing. Would definitely recommend this course.”
“I do not recommend the course.
It is absolutely a complete waste of time.
1. You do not get any real feedback. Whatever you write, it is brilliant.
2. You need to wait for other members. It is fine but... You may wait for them for several hours. And while you are waiting you can't go even to the toilet. Because "all go on a break together". You need to sit and stare at the monitor.
The most important.
If you are prof, you will not get any new information or any help. Just spend your time sending your CVs, doing yoga or even watching TV.
If you are not prof.. You have just graduated or you have a gap in your employment... They will put a huge amount of useless info into your head and that is all. You will get more effect if you just google - how can you find job?”

We also want to add, that there is a scenario where you already have a well thought-out, highly developed CV. If this is the case with you, unfortunately you should never have been recommended to join this course. This course caters for people who have a far less developed CV (if they have one at all).
96% of our learners would recommend this course because it gives the CV, skills and confidence that they need to move forward.
“The Civil Service Employability training was very informative, the tutor was so supportive and the teaching was excellent! I would recommend this course to anyone who looking for a confidence boost in writing their CV, application, cover letter and tips for applying for Civil Service jobs.”
