Excellent - Richie Welsh ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a great experience. Was really worried before joining as had a bad experience with my previous training providor. Recommended by a friend, I joined to complete my NVQ level 3. I was assigned a chap called Richie Welsh. This guy is excellent. Cannot praise tradeskills enough after the experience I’ve had with Richie. Extremely helpful, always on hand to help where needed. Great personality, I have felt I’ve gained a friend as well as a mentor. Great at explaining things and guided me through the entire process. Thanks Rich, your the man 🤙🏻

Richie Welsh is a top-notch tutor

Richie Welsh is a top-notch tutor. He made the entire NVQ process as painless as possible, providing me with well-structured learning packs and clear, easy-to-follow instructions on everything I needed to do. I would highly recommend him.

Level 2 Electrical Coventry

I have had a very good experience at City and Guilds Coventry. All the teachers were very welcoming and the teachers taught and explained everything very well. I would recommend doing a course here.

My experience with trades skill 4 u

My tutor Carl sawyer was a great tutor although the course was quite intensive he throughly went through everything with great explaination. Made sure everyone in the class understood what he was talking about, treated everyone fairly.

It was a very knowledgeable course considering I didn’t know very much about electrical isolations as I was always apprehensive when it came to wiring issues, now after attending the course I’m more confident.

The way the tutors help me to study simply, and motivate me when I worried, that makes me to stay concentrate in this course. I'm very thankful to tradeskils4u make me a better student in this industry. After I speak to my tutor I got more ideas of how to be an electrician. Now I'm very confident of how I can get into the industry. And from this college I will be a electrical. Thank you..

Think twice before booking. Refund policy a scam

Be sure to take your time before booking any course especially if they phone to take deposit over the phone. The sales personal are only interested in taking the money and deposit. If for any reason you want to cancel, they will refer you to their website. Why don’t they refer you to their website to make payment as well so you can read their T&C’s but prefer to take the payment over the phone without telling you the terms and conditions over the phone!

I definitely recommend it.

I completed my level 3 with TS4U in the Warrington branch. My experience was fantastic. Brilliant college with Brilliant staff, that includes the teachers like Jay, Dave, Bill, Andy, and Chris, as well as the receptionist staff Donna and Olivia who were extremely helpful and welcoming.

Overall a great place to learn with a great atmosphere and high teaching standards. I loved the fact that it had a nice safe carpark, shops close by, and had a well stocked free hotdrinks machine which helped get through a tough day. If you live in yhe northwest of England it's a great location, in Warrington off the M62 right in the middle of Liverpool and Manchester. Hopefully I'll be doing my NVQ and 2391 with TS4U soon.

I definitely recommend it.

Amazing training provider and tutors.

I have been fortunate to have an excellent group of tutors who have supported me throughout the majority of my electrician training, and I am now at the AM2 stage. In particular, I would like to recognise Richard Hall and Richard Welsh for their outstanding contributions to my learning journey.

Richard Hall, based at the Leeds centre, has an exceptional ability to explain complex subjects in a clear and engaging manner, which has had a genuinely positive impact on my development. Richard Welsh is equally fantastic; his energy, positivity, and guidance were instrumental in helping me successfully complete my NVQ.

I am sincerely grateful to both Richard Hall and Richard Welsh for their expertise and dedication. Their wealth of experience has been invaluable, and I feel privileged to have been taught by them.

A huge thank you as well to Trade Skills 4 U. I would not consider training anywhere else and am already planning to complete my EV and solar training with them in the near future.

Kind regards,
Guy S

ABSOLUTELY FIRST CLASS !!!!

As cheesy and cliché as this may sound... THESE GUYS CHANGE LIVES...
TS4U Warrington have quite literally changed my life, giving me the opportunity to re-train and start a whole new career. The level of Training and Support has been exceptional throughout, enabling me to obtain my Level 2 and Level 3 Diplomas in Electrical Installations, as well as the all-important 18th Edition Wiring Regulations Qualification, setting me well on my way to becoming a fully qualified Electrician (NVQ & AM2 Exam to follow). From the daily warm welcome received from Donna & Olivia at the Front Office/Reception Desk, to the incredible wealth of knowledge available from the Team of Tutors under the leadership of Centre Manager, James, the whole experience is absolutely second to none. The centre is very well designed with Practical Training Rooms fully kitted out for the hands-on part, as well as spacious classrooms for delivery of expert tuition in a focused environment, with invaluable information being passed on by the most knowledgeable Tutors around. All the Tutors are Electricians by trade, with decades of real-world electrical experience, that is delivered hand in hand with very well structured learning materials, using Smart Screens, Large Screen Projectors, Worksheets/Handouts and online eLearning content.
When it comes to student support, as well as being the 'face' of the business, Donna and Olivia are also the point of contact for any queries or support that may be required, and they are amazing, running a tight ship and dealing with queries immediately. They also oversee all the Examinations that are sat in a dedicated I.T. Suite where they invigilate under exam conditions and provide instant results shortly after the exams have been completed.
Practical examinations are handled by the Tutors with dedicated bays to construct into, as well as Test Rigs for specific Inspection & Testing/Fault Finding exams. The whole learning experience is dynamic and fast-paced, but not too fast that it doesn't click. The Tutors have nailed their delivery methods, each bringing in their individual flare and character to the subject matter, making learning an enjoyable process. Finally, as well as what is being delivered personally to each individual, Trade Skills 4 U Warrington creates communities, bringing together groups of strangers at the very start of a course that result in WhatsApp Groups and supportive Group Chats & banter with friends that can then keep in contact after the courses end, maybe working together in the future. The whole experience is just NEXT LEVEL, and one I would recommend to anyone thinking of Training. I have no doubt that I will return for more additional learning in the foreseeable future. Thank You for EVERYTHING !!!
