TESTIMONIALS

I thoroughly enjoyed completing my Care Certificate training. My tutor Jenny was very supportive and knowledgeable which helped me to apply the training in my job role.

The Care Certificate is an entry level requirement for any healthcare staff starting with the NHS. Pier training’s support has been brilliant for us. I wont hesitate to recommend this to any other NHS trust.
