Bad Points

Too expensive, old material, according to watchdog the certificate is no good and they are not backed in any way by microsoft (who havent heard of them!). stay clear of this company.


General Comments

I wanted to try a course that would help me find a career in computers. I decided on skills train as I didnt get much response from my original choice. I felt a bit pressured into agreeing to sign by the salesman they sent round. When I received the material I felt it was rather old, but wanted to get that certificate. Once I neared the end of my first part, they offered new material. I thought, ok 2nd part will be more up to date! They sent the first part again and I had to redo it all. I was sickened about having to do alot of the same work again, but did eventually finish it first part. I then began the second stage.

by that time I felt the material was again out of date by a good year or two. I was also reading the TMA's returned and the answers didnt seem too indepth, rather more from a text book.

Well I was getting slower and slower as I was getting more disappointed, then the news came! BBC Watchdog were onto them for a second time. I felt sickened and conned! especially since I have found out this course costs at least double any other course!

I cancelled my course and stopped payment. It did not stop there. Apparently a credit company pays them the full amount and you have to pay this credit company, so I am now getting chased for the rest of the money, and with no reply from skills train. I have not received all the course material. I am in a debt management situation and should not have been given any sort of credit like this!

I am now being threatened with court action against me. I have paid about 4/5ths of the money.
