I had not long finished my Level 2 in childcare and I was thinking of taking my level 3 in childcare. So I decided to look online to do this and I found North West Community Services, who did this qualification. I rang up and was booked in for an interview to discuss my childcare level 3.
I found that the application progress went very well and the staff where very nice and easy to talk to who gave me a lot of information regarding this qualification.

I have recently completed BTEC Diploma Level 3 in Management under the support of Sylvia Jones.
I also had my Customer Service Lead role made redundant in May and Sylvia completely understood that learning at this point was difficult and extended her support throughout this time.
I think if you could bottle her she'd be worth a fortune to your organisation!

Prior to starting my interview I was studying A levels at sixth form. I found NWCS training and went with them.
When I rang up and booked in for an interview I found the staff helpful and the application process was simple and straight forward.
The interview was very relaxed as the staff where extremely friendly and informative which helped to guide me through making the correct decision.
