Redcliffe Training Reviews 

I enrolled in an advanced course expecting current, high-level material, but found the content was outdated and better suited for beginner-to-intermediate levels. While the presenter was passionate, their market knowledge appeared disconnected from current industry practices. Critical advanced concepts were glossed over, and when I attempted to ask clarifying questions at the end, I was told to limit them as it was holding up lunch.
Furthermore, when I raised these concerns directly via email, the response was defensive and dismissive. My feedback was compared unfavourably to other attendees, many of whom were visibly disengaged or multitasking, likely completing a corporate requirement rather than seeking deep professional development. As a student looking for genuine advanced learning, having valid feedback handled so poorly was a highly disappointing experience.
I strongly advise prospective students to request a detailed syllabus breakdown and verify the currency of the material before investing in training with this provider.

As an external presenter delivering technical courses for Redcliffe, I see first-hand the quality of their operations. Alongside their meticulous and efficient administration, the defining strength of their programmes is the calibre of the delegates. Drawing on over 40 years of experience as a lawyer, chartered accountant, and banker; alongside remaining an active senior consultant to Grant Thornton UK and senior advisor to KPMG Finland; I design niche courses across M&A, debt finance, and restructuring that reflect live, current market practices. These address highly technical, practical areas; such as examining the granular mechanics of the equity bridge in acquisition agreements (including IFRS 15 treatment of deferred revenue and unbilled WIP). A critical benefit of these courses is the outstanding quality of the participants. Redcliffe consistently attracts top-tier participants from leading law firms and financial institutions. The real-world expertise and insightful questions they bring to the table significantly enhance the value of the programme for everyone involved.

Excellent firm to do business with, friendly staff, great communication and surprisingly competitively priced.

Great people to work with. Insightful, experienced, and not afraid to ask you the occasional challenging question

I have been working with Redcliffe Training as a training facilitator for over 3 years now, and I can honestly say they are one of the best organisations I have worked with when it comes to support behind the scenes.

Their relationship managers are approachable and responsive and very flexible.They make you feel like a valued part of the team rather than just another name on a list. Communication is clear, and any questions or issues are dealt with promptly.

The admin team really deserves special mention, and Apolka in particular. She is brilliantly efficient at everything she does. Nothing slips through the cracks, and she manages us trainers with real confidence and professionalism. Knowing she is hugely organised means I can focus fully on delivering the training, which makes a huge difference. Thank you

I'd highly recommend Redcliffe Training to any trainer looking for an organisation that's well organised, supportive and a pleasure to work with.

Helpful examples - speaker was keen to get interaction (although other attendees were less keen to give interaction!).
Answered questions as we went.
The brief of what was to be covered included the recent changes to the "non-dom" regime, so I was expecting a section on the IHT treaties, as these are possibly more affected than the IT/CGT treaties, but there wasn't one.
The topics that were covered in the materials were covered well.
Speaker kept moving around and disappearing into his background. He was also a bit too close to the camera, when in the picture and at an unusual angle, which was all a bit off-putting.

Great presentation on Family Investment Companies - knowledgable speaker and an engaging course.

Great content, but felt too rushed.

First day was excellent but felt the second day dragged abit

Very detailed conversation about International Tax and Pillar 2 implications. The tutor provided very useful insight into then topic and how it applies to UK entities.

I liked that it was interactive and not just someone talking to you. Tutor was knowledgeable and I felt I gained a lot of knowledge from the course. Also the course notes are great to keep to refer back to.

The professor is really prepared and experienced. I really appreaciated the arguments and the details of the lesson.

Great real-life examples and room to discuss questions.

The course is well structured and balanced between general knowledge and more specific contract analysis. The speaker is highly qualified and knowledgeable.

I enjoyed the course - I found the process from booking to attending seamless and got a lot out of the course!

Punctual & fast in the set up, with quality in the result.
