This is my 3rd Compex refresher at EPIT and I highly recommend EPIT to anyone looking for a place👍.
I highly recommend EPIT for the PAT testing course.
The atmosphere was very welcoming and professional from day one.
Although there was more material to cover than I initially expected, the tutor explained everything so well that I felt completely prepared for both the practical and multiple-choice exams.
I passed with confidence! I would definitely recommend EPIT to anyone looking to advance their qualifications.
Excellent guidance and training.
A well organised and professional environment.
Course presented at the highest level from well qualified professionals.
I was there for 3 days in total, doing a different course each day.
The courses were held by a chap Henry who was ever so knowledgeable.
I’ve come away from there with a far better understanding
I recently completed my CompEx refresher at EPIT and genuinely couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
The facilities are second to none and the whole course was extremely well organised. CompEx can be a daunting and demanding refresher, but the quality of the teaching and course material made the whole experience so much better than refreshers I’ve done at other centres in the past.
Their online training material is also brilliant. I’d actually used it before and paid for access myself, so having it included as part of the course was a real bonus. It’s excellent for preparing beforehand and refreshing your knowledge.
The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and clearly an old hand who has been there, done it and got the T-shirt. He had a huge amount of practical experience and knowledge of the subject, and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand.
The assessor we had the following day was equally professional and, importantly, really put us at ease during the assessments, which is half the battle when the pressure is on and the heart rate starts going up! He clearly explained each task and what was expected of us, without taking anything away from the assessment itself.
Having had some pretty poor CompEx refresher experiences elsewhere in the past, EPIT completely changed the experience for me. It went from something I was genuinely dreading to a five-star experience.
100% worth travelling for and, without question, the best place I’ve done my CompEx training. I’ll definitely be going back when it’s time to renew again.
Very good presentation that made the course easy to follow and learn. The content was highly relevant to my work, with useful handouts and practical exercises that reinforced learning. A well delivered and valuable training experience.
