"Cannot recommend the energy technical academy enough. The facilities are brilliant as are the staff. Jan, Scott, Ryan, Gary, Gavin and Mark are absolutely brilliant and always make you feel so welcome. I'm almost finished sitting my gas ACS and wouldn't have got through it without them. The courses offered are all brilliant and are a great starting point if you're like me and decided to change career. Thanks so much for the help and support !"
