Reviews from our learners
Review: 5 Stars – Outstanding Training Experience I am giving a 5-star, outstanding award to ESO Training for the Door Supervisor’s course I recently completed. If you are looking for professional security training, look no further. The Facilities I was originally attracted to this course because of the free onsite parking and the nearby ASDA—meaning no expensive city parking or pricey lunches. The training takes place in a characterful old school building, but the classrooms themselves are modern and well-kitted out with comfortable chairs and two huge TV monitors. Simon, the owner, also provides an endless supply of free refreshments throughout the week. Expert Instruction Simon and George are incredibly approachable and bring a vast amount of industry experience to the table. Their method of engaging with students ensures that every hour is entertaining; from day one, you truly feel like you are being looked after. Support & Success Their training style gives you a very high probability of passing. Simon is genuinely invested in your success—he doesn't want anyone to fail and will even allow you to return until you pass. Once I succeeded, Simon updated my personal SIA account within just a few days, allowing me to apply for my license immediately. Final Thoughts I want to thank Simon and George for delivering a “top-notch” week. Thanks to their help, I’ve already applied for my license and am ready to get back on the employment ladder. I have so much respect for these guys; the entire process from start to finish took less than two weeks. I am so glad I chose this course. Thank you!

Simon’s teaching style was easy to follow, practical, and well-structured. I would also like to thank you to Simon Owen for his excellent delivery and support throughout the course.
