NEBOSH General Certificate
"Further to my phone call this morning re the NEBOSH General Certificate course which I took with you in June. My results arrived over the weekend and I was surprised to find I had passed with a distinction. Much credit is due to Matthew (Joyes) for his excellent teaching. He was also ably assisted by Chris (Pyke) and they delivered a well planned and interesting course over the two weeks. I found all the staff at Associated Training friendly and welcoming and really enjoyed the course."
_Michael Whittington, Technical Officer, Nottinghamshire County Council
The course is delivered over 10 days in two 5 day segments, culminating in a 2 part written examination, followed by a practical assessment.

"Hi Matt (Joyes). Well you probably already know but, if my parents are right (they opened my results for me as I wasn't there), I believe I got a distinction! So many thanks for the brilliant training! Now it's just a case of what to do next!"
_ Jo Marshall
"Got my results today and appear to have got a distinction!
Can I thank you both for this result. Matt (Joyes) for the hard work in training us and Jennifer for knocking us into shape. You both deserve a star.
I will drop a couple of bottles of wine into you Friday which I hope you will have a drink on me; or at least toast the fact that you will not have to put up with my nusiance again."
