I left the Military and wanted a new chapter in something completely new so I was looking at doing my 360 Ticket for my resettlement and after careful selection I went with Chris at CT Assessments. I had absolutely nothing to worry about from day one. He guided me through it all. And I successfully passed my CPCS 360 -10 Ton and above. Now that was seven months ago. I just did my ADT this week with Chris same again professional and super friendly in every manner. I also just booked myself in for my Loading shovel Ticket. I think it speaks for itself if I paid and about to do my 3rd Ticket with Chris and don’t live to close. Definitely 5/5 Stars and 100% will recommend.
Had the pleasure of Chris instructing me for a week on a wheel loader.
Very enjoyable man to be around and always had very insightful information to give in a precise manner I would highly recommend his courses to anyone.
I will certainly be back.
Chris is an excellent instructor, tutor and all round good guy. He’s patient and thorough with his instructions and teaching. A very down to earth learning experience with a positive outcome for me. His site is comprehensive with an excellent selection of plant available. I’d highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn and get their plant tickets and certification.
