      Will Richardson ISO 27001 Lead Auditor

      Trainer was excellent. A bit tiring but fully-maximized the time. It was not just a preparation for the certification but really to increase auditor competency on performing the audits.

      Anon ISO 27001 Lead Auditor

      A great instructor who kept the class engaged throughout. I particularly think the role-play session and the tutor's ability to change character to fit the audit was great!!

      I thoroughly enjoyed this course; the trainer was an excellent trainer who brought 'alive' the subject matter. 'Learning through doing' was a great way to practice what we had been taught ... having a go, gave me confidence too. Thank you
