As soon as I registered to undertake my NEBOSH Fire Safety Certificate with RRC they provided me with clear and detailed information on all aspects of the course. Any queries were answered quickly by the dedicated Customer Services team.
The tutor, Steve, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable and the practical application and examples he used and explained really helped me through the exam.
The Live Online course was well structured and the RRC platform is really user-friendly and easy to use.
I would recommend RRC as a learning partner to anyone looking to undertake professional health and safety qualifications. I was so impressed by the service I received from RRC, I have decided to stay with them to continue my professional development and start my NEBOSH National Diploma
I found RRC during a tough time as many people have been through in recent times. This subject is something I've always had an interest in and gave me something to focus on. I just want to thank you and your team.
