Skills North East - Newcastle upon Tyne

Paddy Smith was an interesting and engaging tutor for a diverse group of willing and not so willing learners. Some just wanted the CSCS card. I've yet to do the CSCS card because I haven't chased that up. The guaranteed interview I ended up with was a recruitment agency and I haven't followed that up yet. The jobcentre still want to make my CV look professional. We didn't do that in the bootcamp course as we should have but there was follow up and engagement. I cannot fault Paddy or Nicola Devine, for their time, efforts and engagement. I made new friends on the course who I have stayed in touch with. From the boots kills camp, I got certificates in first aid, health and safety and Greenskills. I'm staying in the part time job I already have because I couldn't get references from my previous two employers, otherwise this course would have led on to switching direction and enjoying what I do more. I am, however, doing volunteer work in gardening, mental health and other community projects. I give 4 stars as it should have done everything it said during the time we were ther and that it hasn't continued running. There should be more Greenskills in the South Tyneside and Gateshead East areas.

Jade is an amazing tutor. She’s very approachable and patient and all the lessons are very formative.
Nothings to much trouble, be it in lesson or via an email.
I’ve enjoyed the course that much I’ve stayed on to do the nail course too.

The course for teaching assistants I attended was professionally delivered, and additional placement gave me some experience, so is not only theory-based training.

During the training, everybody was supported with everything that needed to be done, by the staff.

Highly recommend !!!
