What our Clients say

Govia Thameslink Railways

"ATDirect is such a remarkable organisation with seasoned instructors. I enjoyed the support I got from the entire team, from start to finish. From when I started my inquiry, the accounts team, and more importantly my Instructor, for her patience and support each time I needed her; her prompt feedback, and encouragement. All of which contributed to the success of my training."

"I completed my CAVA Level 3 Assessors course by ATDirect Ltd. The course was informative, engaging and actually fun to do. I had negative experiences with course providers in the past with their lack of flexibility and support however with ATDirect it was completely positive. Massive thank you to Eirini for being the best coach! I could not have done it without you."

"As a learner, I found the work we completed to be very engaging. Kevin is a really good communicator - relaxed but focused in his approach and we got through the work at a good pace. Communication following the teaching sessions was excellent and it was made clear what was required and how to go about doing this. I would highly recommend this service :)"

"I would like to take the time to thank ATDirect for giving me and my colleagues the second to none service on our courses. Kevin did not only deliver and support us throughout the process but encouraged me (especially because of my other commitments outside of work and slowing down) not to give up and complete my qualification. I was regularly contacted to encourage me to not give up and…More →

"I would highly recommend ATDirect, and in particular Steve Mortimore, for anyone undertaking their IQA Level 4 qualification. Steve’s support throughout my qualification was outstanding from start to finish. The guidance provided was clear, structured, and always aligned with real-world IQA practice, not just the theory. Steve has an excellent ability to explain complex requirements in a practical and reassuring way, which made the process far more manageable and confidence‑building…More →

Xeiad - civil engineering consultancy

"I completed both the Trainer and Assessor courses (Lv3). I enjoyed both and felt I learned a lot. The biggest thing I can say however is that they were patient and understanding as I was delayed due to outside circumstances. Peter was compassionate and worked with me to help me through. Would train with them again for sure."
