Practical Intruder Alarm Installation – BTEC Level 3 Certificate: Reviews

Lewis was able to give helpful advice about problems I had encountered in my day job.
I’d just like to say how much I enjoyed the course last week, very informative and Lewis is a great tutor.


I had a really good week. Learnt more than I thought I would.
Lewis is a very good tutor, explained everything and made everything seem easy. I’ve been on a few courses over the years and this was by far the best one I’ve ever been on, so thank you for that.
I’m sure I’ll be doing a few more in the future.
