Our Company use Pentland Training for in-house Analyst training. They offered a flexible 8-day course split into 2-day modules over a period that matched our resources.
We particularly liked the fact that the training director and trainer met with us to discuss training needs and objectives before, during and after courses. They proved ‘good listeners’ by offering a bespoke product rather than a generic offering. Training feedback was thorough and consistently positive.
