Human Resources Management Instructional Process

1. The training was delivered in a professional manner, with numerous possibilities to debate scenarios in human resource management.
2. Informative training course material and empowering in the field of management, particularly for individuals who had never had any prior training in this area.
3. The training was conducted at a reasonable speed, with more than enough time to gain further knowledge, and I thought I received useful information and suggestions to help and expand my knowledge and comprehension.
4. This course is incredibly valuable and educational for both employers and employees. The theoretical input was incredibly informative, and it made us completely aware of employees' rights and responsibilities.

Excellent Course with Outstanding Support

I recently completed the Paralegal Programme with Bradstone Allington, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The course content was comprehensive, and the instructors were knowledgeable and supportive throughout. The materials provided were well-structured, making complex legal concepts easy to understand. I feel well-prepared to advance in my career with the skills and knowledge I’ve gained from the CPD Paralegal Program

Complete scam. Stay away!!

I am writing to express my profound disappointment with the services provided by Bradstone Allington. My recent experience with this company has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I feel compelled to share my grievances to warn others. I was initially assured that a placement in Birmingham would be available which was QWE compliant, which was a key factor in my decision to enroll. However, after I made the payment, I was informed that placements were only available in Sheffield, Manchester, and London. This is a blatant case of misleading information and a violation of my trust. The assurance of a Birmingham placement was crucial for balancing my work and personal life, and the sudden change has caused significant distress. This deceptive practice not only influenced my purchasing decision but has also had severe implications for my professional and personal responsibilities.

The customer service I received was abysmal. Despite my numerous inquiries, my concerns were consistently ignored, leaving me feeling undervalued and dismissed. Given the premium fee I paid, I expected a high level of support and communication, as was clearly stated in the service offering. Instead, I encountered a complete lack of empathy, delayed responses, and an overall dismissive attitude. This has severely eroded my confidence in Bradstone Allington.

To make matters worse, after paying £1995, I have received nothing in return. The company has now blocked me from their emails and stopped responding to any further communication. When I finally decided to accept the first available placement, I am inclined to believe that Bradstone Allington had instructed the client not to reply to me. This behavior is indicative of a scam operation, and I feel utterly betrayed.

In conclusion, my experience with Bradstone Allington has been a disaster from start to finish. They have employed misleading practices, provided appalling customer service, and ultimately scammed me out of £1995. I strongly advise anyone considering their services to stay away and save themselves the frustration and financial loss. This company has proven to be completely untrustworthy and unprofessional. Stay away from this company. If I could give it 0 stars I would!!

Reply from Bradstone Allington

Dear Samiyah,

We are sorry to hear about your recent experience with Bradstone Allington. However, we must clarify a few points mentioned in your review.

Firstly, it is important to note that our contract explicitly states that we do not guarantee placements in any specific location. Our placements are conducted remotely, and this information is clearly communicated during the enrolment process. Therefore, the claim that you were assured a placement in Birmingham is not accurate. We understand the inconvenience caused by this misunderstanding, but it is not a reflection of deceptive practices on our part.

Regarding your concern about the placements, we did offer you two different work placement options which you declined. We have made every effort to provide you with suitable alternatives and assist you in finding a resolution. It is unfortunate that you did not find these options satisfactory, but it is unfair to label our attempts as a scam.

We have provided you with an accredited certificate, fulfilling part of our service commitment. Additionally, your statement that we have blocked you from our emails is not true. Our customer service team has been responsive, and we have records of all communications with you. Any delays in response were not intentional and we regret any frustration they may have caused.

We strive to offer the best possible support and service to all our clients. We are disappointed that you feel let down despite our efforts to address your concerns. We remain open to assisting you further and finding a satisfactory solution.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best regards,
The Bradstone Allington Team

Not impressed

Not impressed, I have been left in debt by this company and have little to show for it. I am open to discussions with BA.

Not sure how to reply to the below comment, but I have phone called and even emailed for help and support. I tried to stop the course early on but I was told it was too late and that I missed the cut off date. still have gotten very little support and ignored. I have lost over £2000 on top of pay this huge amount you have keep paying out for exams about £100 a go. I feel embarrassed that I fell for this scam at my time of life. My advice, if you want to change your career path contact your local community college and work with them. I am doing my dream job, but this company has left me in debt. I am happy to take this down if you can sort out this situation Bradstone Arlington.

Your response is a fabrication I have messaged and phoned as recently as this week!!!! The last response I have received from you was February!!!! You have had ample chances to sort this out, I don’t mind failing and retaking exams, I big enough to take it and am willing to work hard enough for it. As for the money are you honest enough to admit that you are scamming people? You have taken my money and not delivered!!!! That is a scam. Please sort this out by picking up the phone and talking to me or a least answering my messages.

Also, I never said I incurred a debt because I failed an exam. I have incurred a debt, a debt paying for what I believed was a high quality course that would help me get work experience and support my career profession in a supported environment. This has not happened.

Hi Marie,

It appears from our correspondence with the tutor that you haven't been in touch with us since February. Could you please inform us of any issues you are experiencing so that we can assist in resolving them?

As mentioned during our last conversation, we sent you an email regarding retaking your exam. Unfortunately, you did not pass your first exam attempt, and we tried to support you with the retakes. It seems a bit unfair to claim that we scammed you or caused you to incur debt because of your exam result. We are here to support you, and if you require assistance with retaking your exam, we are more than happy to help. However, you did not respond to our last email. Please contact us at support@bradstoneallington.com if you would like our assistance with a new exam.

Perfect Way To Start Your Accounting Career!

The tutor was very helpful, if I had any difficulty in understanding any module. I also received a great support from Michael Mason in completing the course seamlessly. The course has an in-depth knowledge of what a person needs to excel in making his accounting career. This Investment on yourself will just improve productivity, better understanding of software like Sage 50 and Xero, which will help you in better decision-making and will help you in reducing errors in financial tasks.

An enriching learning experience

I recently completed a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) course at Bradstone Allington Academy, and I must say, the experience exceeded my expectations. From the onset, the enrollment process was seamless, with clear communication and guidance from the administrative team.

The course content was current, relevant, and delivered in a way that was both engaging and informative. The instructors at Bradston Allington are evidently experts in their fields, bringing not only depth of knowledge but also practical insights that can be applied in real-world scenarios. This was immensely beneficial, especially in areas of the course that covered complex subjects.

The flexibility of the schedule was a significant advantage. It allowed me to balance my professional commitments with my learning goals effectively. Moreover, the academy’s platform was intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to access course materials and interact with instructors and peers.

What sets Bradston Allington Academy apart is their commitment to student success. The staff was incredibly supportive throughout the course duration, always available to answer questions and provide extra help where needed.

Upon completion, the certification process was prompt, with clear instructions provided for claiming and using my certificate professionally. This course has not only broadened my knowledge but has also opened up new opportunities for career advancement.

I highly recommend Bradston Allington Academy to anyone looking to enhance their professional skills through CPD courses. Their high standards and supportive environment make for an enriching learning experience.

A Spectacular experience with Bradstone Allington

My venture with Bradstone Allington so far has been extravagantly pleasant, impactful and expanded my knowledge pool. For the past 2 and a half months, I have been engrossed in the training element of my Working Placement Programme, where I have been endorsed with practical as well as procedural and substantive elements which a paralegal must be aware of. I am thankful to my tutor as well as an adviser called James who have supported me in the best ways they could. Passing the MCQ exam was a very rewarding moment and this is due to the great services of Bradstone Allington. Thank you!
