This week's feedback comes from Ebrahim Aqlan, who recently completed his RTITB-accredited Counterbalance Novice course at our Birmingham training centre.

Here's what Ebrahim had to say about his experience:

Our aim is to ensure every candidate leaves with not only an RTITB qualification, but also the confidence and skills to succeed in the workplace.
