“I have just finished my Level 3 SVQ in Health and Social Care offered by PA Training. At first I needed a lot of help, but after the first one or two units I was able to get on and work on my own, although it helped to know that I could pick up the phone at any time to get advice or one to one time from the staff. I also enjoyed the workshops and meeting other people at the courses that were provided for the knowledge.”
