What customers say

Great suite of training perfectly suited to the education setting, allowing training to be drip-fed in a meaningful way.

Ian Thorpe, Downsend School

I find the EduCare systems very effective. I have physically attended courses before and have gained much less knowledge from them. The courses are very easy to follow and cause you to reflect on the key points in the test phase. I had a slight technical problem (possibly down to my computer) which was resolved quickly by the support team.

David Marriott, Yorkshire Academy of Korean Martial Arts

The training was concise and simple, which made the online learning experience easy and pleasant.
