⭐ Thank you for the fantastic Google review, Glenn Tanner — and congratulations on passing your CPCS A61 Appointed Person course with us! 👏

“I recently completed training with Ainscough Training Services and had Dave Patten as the trainer. Dave was excellent throughout — knowledgeable, patient, and very clear in the way he explained everything.

The course was delivered professionally but in a relaxed and approachable manner, which made it much easier to take in the information and ask questions when needed. Dave clearly has a lot of industry experience and was able to relate the training back to real-life situations, which I found really helpful.

I would happily recommend Ainscough Training Services to anyone looking for high-quality lifting operations or crane-related training. Thank you to Dave and the team.”

Well done Glenn, and thank you for the brilliant feedback — we really appreciate it! 🙌

A huge thank you to Phil Kean from Ashford Infrastructure, who passed his CPCS A61 Appointed Person course with us 👏
“Recently completed the AP Course. Although quite intensive with a lot of information to take in, Dave Pattern our instructor made the whole class feel at ease, with the 5 days flying by. Having the theory paper tackled on day 1 was excellent, giving you enough time throughout the week to master it.
Dave was always there to assist and make sure everything clicked by day 4, ready for test day on day 5. Very professional from start to finish. Thanks.”
Well done Phil, and thank you for the fantastic feedback! 🙌

⭐ Another Fantastic 5-Star Review for Ainscough Training Services ⭐

We would like to thank Tom Rogerson for once again choosing Ainscough Training Services for his professional development, this time successfully completing the 3-Day CPCS A62 Lift Supervisor course with Tom Keep. 👏

It is always rewarding to see delegates return to continue their training journey with us, and we are especially pleased to hear that Tom is already looking forward to returning for his Appointed Person course.

Tom recently shared the following feedback after completing the course:
“Absolutely fantastic yet again, I'm looking forward to coming back for my AP. Thank you all.”

Tom had previously completed the 6-Day Crane Operator course with us and also provided this excellent review of his experience:

“Instructors Tom and Dave were both fantastic. Very nice, informative and always checking we were following before proceeding to the next part. They gave me everything I needed from total amateur to achieve a pass on both tests on day 6. Examiner Joe was also very nice, supportive and fair. If anyone reading this is nervous about the course/exam then don't be, they'll support and help you from start to finish. Provided lunches are lovely, and the facilities are nice, new and clean. Can't ask for more.”

Feedback like this reflects the commitment of our instructors and training team to delivering high-quality, supportive, and practical training for every delegate.

Congratulations again to Tom on his continued success, and thank you for the outstanding feedback and ongoing support.
