My group have used Pentland Training twice in the past two years for in-house Oracle courses. Pentland Training was recommended to us by another group with whom we interact within GSK.

The two courses met all our objectives relating to price, content covered, and tailoring to our needs. The last objective of having customised course content was especially important to us as other training companies tended to offer “one size suits all” training where much of the content was irrelevant to our needs.

Pentland will be our first choice for future training needs.
