Stevie Melvin - Taste Original

I have just finished my Level 5 NVQ Diploma in Health and Safety Practice and I wouldn't have been able to do it without the support from Matt King, my Portfolio Assessor. Matt always gave great feedback when I submitted units for review and if any changes were required, he made it clear what i needed to do. Feedback was always quickly received too. The online Learning Assistant was easy to use when uploading completed units. My Assessor Ian McNamara, was also great and guided me through the professional discussion that were part of the NVQ. Using SVT to complete the NVQ was a good choice. They provide great value for the qualifications with excellent support from the Assessors. I will definately use SVT again for future qualifications and courses

I would like to pass on my sincere thanks to the team at SVT for their utmost professionalism during my recent Level 6 NVQ in Occupational Health and Safety Practice, from start to finish I found the course extremely enjoyable and rewarding. The whole team involved in my studies were excellent starting with Becky Rose, the Course Accounts Manager, who enrolled me on the course with ease, her devotion in providing a first-class customer experience was outstanding and set the tone for the remainder of the course. My main thanks and gratitude is directed to Matt King my course assessor who provided me with an exceptional level of support throughout my studies, his dedication, compassion and understanding proved pivotal in me completing this intense qualification. Matt's professional attitude and expertise helped me develop throughout the course and I am grateful for his expert guidance throughout. I feel on the NVQ style course, communication and feedback is the mainstay of success and that was definitely the case with Matt, receiving swift feedback and guidance is what students want and in this case that is what Matt provided, his dedication and support was second to none. I would also like to thank Ian McNamara and Mike Watson who guided me through the professional discussion stage of the course, again their commitment and dedication was excellent. Finally, I would recommend SVT to anyone wishing to enhance their skillset and continue with studies, from beginning to end it was a thoroughly gratifying experience, the portal system is easy to work through and message system linked to your email is extremely beneficial

Kieran Jaw - Turning Point

 I recently completed the ILM level 5 in leadership and management, this is the first time in about 10+ years I have undertook any education and was daunted by the prospect at first. My assessor was Cheryl who from first contact made me feel very at ease and broke down for me what was needed to be successful and re-assured me that she was always available to help. The platform on which holds all the resources and you submit the work is very interactive and simple to use something I believe anyone can get used to after a couple of uses. The content of the course was not only informative but also thought provoking in that it made me along the way think about my own service delivery and how I can improve in my role, and I have actually implemented some of the techniques I have learnt already. Again I can not say thank you enough to Cheryl for all of her help and support throughout as she never put pressure on me and really knows her stuff. Any query or submission of work that I made Cheryl was always extremely quick at replying which made the course engaging for me as I could continuously work without waiting for responses and outcomes. Thank you!

This course was perfect for me. With the everchanging events of the current world, being able to speed up and slow down with my learning helped me make this a good experience. Rather than being a slog I had to get through, the structure and content of the course meant that I did actually learn and retain, then put this into action in my workplace. Cheryl was always on hand, offering encouragement and feedback throughout - she really helped my motivation and learning. The professional discussions with Mike were great too, his approach encourages you to explore the topics in the right level of detail - I found mixing between reflective work and discussions worked perfectly. I'd recommend the course and the support to anyone who has the motivation to learn

Completing the Level 5 in Leadership and Management in Adult Care, was hard work, I will not deny this, and you do have to have the discipline to set aside study time and carry out some independent research.

It is a challenging course, but, it is achievable and rewarding. Not only have I learned and gained confidence through this course, but I have now progressed into a Deputy Manager role and feel that I will be able to use my qualification to further my career in the future.

Ian Mumby -

This is the second qualification I have chosen to complete through the services of SVT. Having successfully completed the Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice, I was able to quickly complete the Level 6 Diploma shortly after. Being technophobic, I was reluctant to embark on a qualification that involved remote on-line working, however; the team at SVT were very accommodating, patient and ready to help and assist me in completing the course work and evidence needed to qualify. I am particularly grateful to Matt King for being supportive as my portfolio assessor and for the help and support I received from Leanne Kershaw, who as a H&S Administrator helped me with many of the practical requirements in terms of completing the right units and sections of the course work. For anyone considering any qualification offered by SVT, I would endorse the organization wholeheartedly

When I had doubts Matt was always there to help me whether it was concerns on evidence or the answers to the questions.

I really enjoyed this course, but this is down to the support from Cheryl and Mike. Even when I had lost momentum and feeling a little lost in it all Cheryl was kind and gave me the nudge I needed. My professional discussions were daunting, but Mike put me at ease, and actually made them quite enjoyable (and they enabled me to complete my course quicker). Cheryl and Mike are brilliant at what they do and are very knowledgeable. It's felt like a long 2 years, but it would've been an even longer without the support of Cheryl and Mike!

I recently completed my NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Health and Safety with SVT. The assistance I had right from the start was fantastic and Matt King was a great mentor throughout. The induction and onboarding process was slightly problematic due to the ongoing Coronavirus Pandemic however Matt and the team couldn't have been more helpful. My Units were sent in via the online portal which - with a bit of training - was easy to navigate.

I completed my professional discussion online via Teams and my instructor was relaxing and very calming. Throughout this experience, I have nothing but high praise for the SVT team

Nick Burnside - Calex Learning

I would highly recommend Cheryl and her wider team if you are looking at procuring external delivery for your team or yourself. I base this feedback on a few reasons, firstly Ryan (Account Manager) is exceptionally expedient at following up on your enquiry (I've lost count of the times that I've had to chase other providers for information) Secondly, the transition from signing up to onboarding is super slick (passwords, support materials and onboarding are organised straightaway) Last, but certainly not least, Cheryl will dedicate whatever time that you need to ensure that you feel comfortable within the qualification. I've been involved in the L&D space for the last 18 years and I would not hesitate to recommend to other people the SVT services. I will definitely be taking my own advice for future development

Andy Franks - Mountview

I was worried about doing this level of long distance study, apart from my own ability to finish the course, it really needed to be a good relationship between the learner and trainer to make the study easier. Easy access to course material, useful and productive comments from trainers and a well developed online customer interface. The course needs to be well structured and enable the learner to step through the training with ease. All I can say is SVT have achieved this to a very high level and I would like to thank the staff for the clarity and support. Although the course was challenging, the ease and interactions made it easier to achieve

I have recently completed my Level 7 in Strategic Leadership and Management to which I am still in disbelief, without the exceptional support of Cheryl and Mike Watson I would not have been able to accomplish this achievement. The level of professionalism and assistance was second to none, I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to broaden their career to the next level. Personally, I doubted myself in being able to achieve a particular level of education, however the motivation and creativeness from Cheryl and Mike was impeccable. I set up a goal of 1 year to complete the Level 7 to which I completed in four months simultaneously being on maternity leave. I'd like to thank both Cheryl and Mike for their amazing support in aiding me in achieving my goals for which I am extremely grateful

Simon Gibson - Breckenbrough School

Keith was incredibly helpful when I needed guidance, giving me pointers about how to answer certain questions when I was struggling. What I would say to anybody who has just started their course is that, if you need to ask something, get in touch straight away and get the guidance you need. My course was quite repetitive and I sometimes felt that the questions were asking the same thing; then Keith gave me the guidance that I could refer to an earlier answer if I felt it covered another answer which was great. If in doubt, ask!

Having just moved into my role, my new colleagues who had previously attended this course recommended it to me. The material was very relevant and the course director was flexible in his teaching, tailoring the programme to the relevant industries people worked in. I also gained a lot of exposure to the other delegates which I found very valuable. After attending the course I am starting to apply the skills that I learnt from the course which will be a great contributor to the end result of the projects I work on. I already have, and will recommend this course to others responsible for developing products for their company

 My study with SVT Ltd has been incredible with both Level 5 & 7 diplomas, the service that they provided was impeccable and I would say that it has been one of the best schools that I have ever been to. The support and guidance provided by Cheryl, Mike and the rest of the team have been great and I believe that I would not probably be able to do both Level 5 & 7 diplomas without their support. I would strongly recommend these courses and school to any students and organisations as I had a world-class service

Sadie Jones - Kepak

The team at SVT training have been very supportive from enrolling onto the course and setting up online portals with a short training session on how to use it. Mike Watson has been a very supportive tutor with years of vast and verifying expertise in his field. Mike was able to provide effective and useful guidance throughout the course helping me stay focused and certainly relieved my self-perceived stress levels when completion dates were looming. Communications from Mike were also excellent reaching out to provide assistance and also being available whenever I needed guidance. There is no doubt without Mike's support I would have required an extension or even deferred my studies through what has been a very tough 18 months where there were many times I did not believe I had the time and commitment the course deserved but with his help and support I am so pleased to have competed and passed thank you SVT and Mike

Bethany Evans - Bridgford Interiors Limited

A massive thank you to everyone at SVT especially Matt King for always being at the end of the phone for support or guidance, without you finishing my NVQ Level 6 in Occupational Health and Safety would have been challenging. It took me some time to get my head into my studies but as soon as I did it went really well. I felt well supported by the team at SVT and was really surprised how quickly the evidence and tasks got marked and returned, it really did help me keep on track. I will definitely use SVT if I decide to further my studies in the future. Thank you all

Paul Musgrove - Durham County Council

I studied the CMI Level 7 in Strategic Management and Leadership with SVT and found the full engagement from start to finish to be excellent. SVT's online learning portal and materials were very good, and the full learning experience was great. Special mention to Cheryl Watson (who was my tutor\assessor) she was absolutely brilliant throughout the program. She offered me as much support as needed and was always available for a chat whenever required. Her level of knowledge of the program was second to none, and her commitment to ensuring I got through the program is a credit to her. There were many times I could have chucked the towel in!... but Cheryl would always provide reassurance and a fantastic level of support to drag me through it. I can't speak highly enough of her, and future students will be lucky to have her as a tutor. She's a credit to SVT! Additionally, Mike Watson who conducted my professional discussions during the programme was an absolute pleasure. So personal in his approach and would always make you feel at ease. Overall I had a very good learning experience with SVT and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them in future

Lee Rippon - EPD Insulation Group Ltd

 If you are looking for a dedicated, professional training provider I would highly recommend SVT Vocational Training. A mentor of mine recommended SVT back in 2019, I first enrolled onto the Level 5 NVQ Diploma in Occupation Health and Safety Practice to increase my overall knowledge of health and safety. Throughout the course I received prompt, helpful support which empowered me to complete the course without any concerns. In 2021 I wanted to continue my personal development and didn't hesitate in contacting SVT to enrol onto the Level 6 NVQ in Occupational Health and Safety Practice, which I have recently completed. Again throughout the course I received continued support from multiple tutors. Special mention should go to one of their tutors Matt King. Matt helped me during both courses and was always accessible and friendly if I ever had any queries or questions which put my mind at ease. On both occasions I found the online SVT portal simple to navigate for both reference and when uploading any documentation for evidence. I have already recommended SVT to others and will be returning to complete further training in the near future

Matt King and his team were unbelievably supportive during this course. Part way through, I underwent significant changes to my employment which affected my confidence in myself.

The course significantly improved my confidence and helped me to continue to look for ways to improve health and safety in my day to day activities. Without Matt and the support of my employer, friends and family, this would not have happened and I am eternally grateful. This is the second qualification I have achieved with SVT and the quality and standard of support has only improved over the years and I cannot recommend them enough!

Pauline Miller - Torr Home

At first, the volume of work felt daunting and I didn't think I'd be able to complete it within the year but once I focused and got to grips with the material, what was expected and the fact that the course is about our own experience, it was much more manageable. I learnt a great deal and was able to marry the theory with my practical day to day work. Sometimes I struggled with what was being asked of me but my tutor, Joanne was always available and helpful. Occasionally, I had to contact her multiple times for a particular point but she was always willing to help and never made me feel like I was wasting her time. In fact, she has encouraged students to use her and ask for help. I think the course is really informative, engaging, practical and a must for anyone that wants to be a good manager. It's not easy, especially with work and family commitments but the course is a commitment in itself and well worth undertaking. I am really happy to have completed it

Chris Pratt - EPD Insulation Group Ltd

I would like to start my feedback by saying how polite, helpful and professional both Cheryl and Mike have been throughout the whole course. Both Cheryl and Mike were more than willing to assist at very short notice which I feel was a massive help. Once I had started a task I didn't want to come back to it a week later. Therefore the quick responses enabled me to stay current with my task. The level 7 Strategic Management and Leadership course I felt was very informative and an interesting course to undertake. I would recommend the course to anyone in the position where their job requires the execution of a strategic business plan. Once again I want to say thank you to everyone at SVT for all the help and guidance given

I enjoyed the program; the course pushed me to work hard and make time to achieve what I want to do. Monthly emails from my assessor were very helpful to remind me why I signed up to do the course because sometimes I felt it was such a huge course to complete and along the way many times I wanted to give up. Joanne's email messages kept ringing in my ears as to what was required of me, checking my work and using as many examples as possible. It's such a vast course however when the questions are stripped to simple sentences then it becomes everyday job role responsibilities and thus easier

Lynda Wiseman - Macduff Medical Practice

I was particularly anxious, having not done any formal study for 35 years, at starting my NVQ level 4 but Cheryl made me feel very comfortable, helping me navigate the learning portal and guiding me through how I was expected to write. She was very forgiving when I made mistakes and helped me redo a few pieces. Working with her and Mike increased my confidence in my own ability and I really feel I have achieved much more than just the NVQ level 4 from my experience. Thank you

Julie Whittaker - Percurra

I found the NVQ Level 5 quite easy and very informative, I come from having no NVQ or experience in online learning to completing my Level 5. I completed the written work in around 7 months, but I had changed jobs in the middle of the course and had some bad job experiences which held back the marking and observations. I want to thank My Assessor Joanne, she has been just fabulous. She has been so understanding and supportive, and now that I've had my final assessment today I am really going to miss her! A huge thank you for getting me to where I am today, I can't thank you enough

She maintains a high standard of quality, ensuring that a piece of work is marked as completed only when it truly meets the requisite criteria.

Stephen John Williams - IHSSE Ltd

I have been fortunate to work in HSSE with many of the leading operators (BP, EXXONMOBIL, CHEVRON, Wood Group Kenny, Bertling Kazakh Logistics, Bredero Shaw), working in Exploration, Production, Sub Sea Engineering and Logistics. Despite my lack of specialised education in HSSE. Completing the Level 6 Diploma was more about my need to feel like a true HSSE professional rather than a fraud or a chancer. The team at SVT helped make the process a lot less painful than if I had not had their support. Matt and Leanne are the two persons I worked with mostly and I can not thank them enough for their guidance and support. Yes, the course took a long time but only due to my health, not at all due to the content. For those who don't tend to work well in exam conditions the ability to complete the diploma alongside my daily work for IHSSE Ltd, was great. Once I was able to focus on the course I was able to complete it within months. The personnel sense of worth this has given me is hard to measure, but is very real. I have always strived for continual development in all I do and as I worked my way through the course I began to recognise my strengths and where I could improve. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of doing this to do it. The course is worth every penny, and when it comes to safety cost shouldn't matter, but it's hard not to see the benefit of this course for any organisation

Oluwafemi Ogunde - St Christopher's Fellowship

I think the assessors at SVT are doing an amazing job. I would be dishonest if I said it was not tough initially, but Joanne was helpful in ensuring it remained seamless for the duration of the course. Initially, I conditioned my mind to treat this course as I would at the university. However, I soon realised that it was way more than that. It was sharing my 'work story' using reflections on my practice. It was my lived experience, testimonies in some cases and mistakes I had made in the past. It was an eye-opening experience and I would strongly recommend for anyone who is passionate about impacting the lives of children in residential settings. Thank you Joanne and Jo. I'm grateful

Overall I found some parts of this course quite difficult but Cheryl was able to assist and breakdown the units so they were much easier to understand. I have taken away a lot of learning from this course. It is very difficult to find time to devote to this as my role is incredibly busy. Cheryl has been fantastic in supporting me through the last 18 months despite being extremely busy herself (I know this from her 4 am emails!) How Cheryl manages all this is incredible and lord knows how she does it but she does. I think a pay rise is in order and a xmas bonus. Mike was great with all my PD's and coached me through the discussion with ease, I was always surprised to hear Mike say "you have met all the criteria". Sending positive vibes for your health and I hope you both have a lovely xmas break (no working)

In addition to her professional competence, Donna's kindness and empathy shone through in every interaction. Her genuine concern for my success and well-being made the learning process not only educational but also personally enriching. In conclusion, Donna Raggett has been an exemplary assessor, providing impeccable support and guidance throughout my NVQ3 Health and Social Care program. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care have made a lasting impact on my educational journey, and I am incredibly fortunate to have had her as my assessor. Donna's contributions to my success are immeasurable, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking an outstanding mentor in the field of health and social care

Daniel Friest  - Napier Turbo Chargers

Thank you, Cheryl, Mike and the SVT team.

The course content provided me with new learning opportunities through research, theory but also showcasing the work  I undertake in support of this qualification

My first concern before taking the  ILM level  4 with SVT was the 'distance learning' and getting the level of support I would need to complete the qualification. This was quickly removed following the induction by the level of access to relevant material through the learning portal  and the support from my assessor throughout. The course content provides a wide scope and variety of topics which is applicable to  all leadership and management.

This has given me the confidence to continue my academic progressions and follow the ILM level  4 up with the level 5 with SVT in 2020 which of my employer is happy to support based on my feedback provided throughout my course. I will be recommending this training to my current cell manager colleagues  and our future leaders at Napier

Thank you!

I would like to thank SVT for all their support and guidance throughout my NVQ. I found their team and my assessor Matt very professional and helpful in ensuring un understood what was required for each module and ensuring I submitted the right level of evidence each time to show my understanding and competence. I must compliment SVT on the way they get back to you promptly and if you are unsure of anything they are just an email or a phone call away to put you on the right track. Their assistance made this learning and evidencing process a lot easier that it would otherwise have been and I can highly recommend SVT to anyone wishing to pursue an NVQ.

Just to say a big thankyou to yourself, your team and SVT. From start to finish the support has been excellent, from the outset when I first contacted SVT the course was explained in detail the content, expectations, timescales and the support on hand.

The actual course modules and tools to complete the course are excellent and delivered to me in good time, the support then from the team was excellent with regular communication throughout the duration of the course.

I would like to give special praise to my assessor Matt King who was excellent all during my studies, always available either via telephone or email and again very supportive throughout the duration of my studies – Thanks again to Matt and the team.

I would just like to add that the course is good value for money and a good investment, if you pass, it is hard work, but nothing comes easy but with the support of SVT, their team and Matt as your assessor you will pass

Thanks again to you all, but at least I will get my early nights to bed back and my weekends back.

Throughout the entire duration of the course, I was supported and guided by a very professional team from SVT.

My tutor was Matt King, who was very proficient and knowledgeable on the specific subject matter.

His proactive responses to my emails were always very swift and this allowed me to maintain momentum with my course progress.

I greatly appreciate the efforts that Matt made to ensure that my units were well presented and suitable for final submission.

The encouragement and guidance he showed me throughout, was exemplary.

I found the course allowed me to develop my knowledge and skills in the field of Health and Safety, and this was very beneficial in relation to my specific job role.

With all this in mind, I would highly recommend the use of SVT in relation to future professional development.

Olga Kuzmina  -

I have never regretted my decision to study NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety with SVT. The assessment process was straightforward, my tutor Matt King and assessor Mike Watson were extremely patient and professional. The course materials were sufficient to support my study. However, as with many courses, self-learning was beneficial.

Matt checked the suitability of the evidence, plagiarism and provided general advice. Mike provided detailed assessments of my reflective statements and a valuable feedback during my workplace observation. Overall I feel the course helped me to reflect on my work and develop some new skills essential for my role.

The course required much more work than I expected. I read through each unit in the outset and identified activities which I needed to undertake to use as evidence for some units (for example, to conduct workplace audits in support of Unit 517). In this way I had time to collect additional evidence while reflecting on other units.

At the moment I am completing an additional Unit 611 to be eligible for application for Graduate membership of IOSH. I am very glad I came across SVT and I would certainly recommend SVT to anyone for their future professional development.

I have enjoyed every minute of my Level 7, which has become the byword for "Caroline's disappeared for a few hours" in our household! I've been in business for almost 30 years and only wish that I had done this many years ago.  It is
hard work, but Cheryl's dedication and support have kept me on track when the end felt a long way off.  She is always quick to respond to questions and the turnaround of work sent to her is impressive - usually within 24 hours, so I never
lost momentum.  Thank you so much for all your support Cheryl.  See you at graduation! :-)

As before, I had excellent support from Cheryl my course tutor who was there to provide support and guidance whenever I needed it.

Michelle Pitkin - Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue

Not long into my qualification, I could have given up. It was harder than anyone said it would be (an NVQ is easy everyone said!), I kept getting lists of amendments to my submitted units and it was taking more time than I first thought it would, but I’m pleased to say that I didn’t give up and that I have just completed my NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety Practice.

Having completed distance learning before I approached the qualification with some uncertainty as my previous experience of distance learning had not been good, however the support, guidance and continued feedback I received from Matt (not that the feedback was always wanted!) helped me work my way through the units. Matt was there to answer any questions I had and was able to talk me through any problems or concerns I had.

I set my own personal target of 12 months to complete the Diploma and although just over this target (by 2 months) with the encouragement and continued contact, guidance and support from Matt, he made sure I kept on track

I was recommended SVT by a colleague who had also completed the same qualification which I just have and now I would not hesitate in using SVT for future qualifications.

Mick Harhoff -
I would highly recommend SVT and their management courses to anyone. I have recently completed the ILM level 4 diploma in Leadership and Management and am now stepping up to the level 5. As an Operations Manager I already had a broad base of knowledge and experience gained through my role but this course has developed my understanding of the wider organisation and underpinned the fundamental principles of why we do what we do on a daily basis. This covers a number of areas including stakeholder management, operational planning, strategic planning and change management to name but a few. This is the first time I've undertaken a distance learning course and wasn't sure what to expect but I can't speak highly enough of my tutor who was very knowledgeable and the support and guidance I was given throughout.

Dr. Rao Rashid Ali - Salveo Care
I am a qualified consultant dermatologist who served in the NHS for 3 years before having to leave my profession and go back to care for my father in Pakistan due to my father's health condition. After 4 years I came back to UK to carry on my profession but due to GMC rules as I overstayed in Pakistan, my registeration was suspended. SVT showed me the way to build up my career from scratch. I am highly obliged to my instructor Mr Keith Rands who really motivated, supported and guided me to achieve the required knowledge to finish my diploma. I will never forget the support provided by Mr Keith Rands during this period because it was almost impossible for me to study after a gap of 15 years in education. The shared knowledge and support from Mr Keith Rands made it possible for me to finish my course. Now as I have completed my Dip I am looking forward to start my career in Health sector and later pursue my medical career. I am fully confident and ready to start my Level 7 soon. I am really grateful to the SVT team who helped me to get through this hard time of my life. My family and myself will ever remember Mr Keith Rands for his support and motivation to put me back on track.

I would like to thank Cheryl Watson for all of her support and patience in helping me complete my Level 7 Strategic Leadership and Management Course. Studying with SVT has given me the flexibility to study at my own pace. Having
Cheryl as my dedicated mentor to support and guide me through some difficult units has made it a more enjoyable experience, as well as a little needed push every now and again to make sure I stayed on track.
 
Thank you for all of your support. I would recommend Cheryl as a mentor and SVT to anyone wanting to further their studies.

"I want to thank Keith Rands for all his patience support and advise while supporting me to complete my level 5. Keith has not only been flexible to contact me at hours above and beyond office times he has prompted and therefore developed me to think out of the box and reach my full potential. Keith has been adaptable in his approach and recognized that I needed deadlines to work at to stay on track and Keith has set up reminder emails to gently keep me engaged. I think had it not been for his support I would still be struggling to finish assignments and quickly running out of time. I would recommend Keith as an assessor and long arm support provider in the future for anyone wanting to complete their studies"

"Thank you Joanne and SVT for overseeing the Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care - Children's Management. I really valued the input, support and guidance of my assessor Joanne. She always kept in touch from the start and this enabled us to build a trusting working relationship. I was impressed with the mix of telephone discussions at the beginning of the course and this really enabled me to develop a momentum for the assignments and keep on track. This approach was also reflective and again allowed a balanced way of completing an Online distance learning course.

The Observation was also another excellent verification tool and it was very nice to meet my assessor at this point, having worked with her so closely over several months.

I was impressed with the timeliness in which Joanne responded to my emails and importantly my submitted work. Her feedback were measured, positive and also offered points of improvement if necessary - this shows a thorough and fair process that demands high standard in this Diploma.

I am really pleased to have used SVT to complete my Level 5 Diploma and I would recommend them!

Thanks SVT !!

I have thoroughly enjoyed doing the Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care. I was anxious initially about downloading the documents but there was always help on the other end of the phone. Having my own tutor was a great asset; if they were on holiday or unavailable there was always someone that I could ask for help or advice. As a result, and because of all of the support offered I was able to complete the diploma in less than five months.

Shahwaz Mustafa Khan - QD-SBG Construction

Its being a really very good journey with SVT during my Level 5 Diploma. Very good support, advice and coordination received from everybody in SVT, specially Matt King & Mike Watson. The course content of the Level 5 Diploma was very concise and practical in my work aspect in the field of health and safety. By having this Level 5 Diploma it will enable me to get Graduate Membership of IOSH and that will be a very good achievement for a health and safety professional. Thanks to SVT for offering the Level-5 Diploma, it has meant that I have learnt several new aspects of health and safety. One important thing about this course is it's flexibility; one can choose any unit at any time, and submit the relevant evidence through email for review and assessment. The SVT assessors guide students if something needs to be revised or incorporated in order to complete a unit. A candidate can select any unit, compete the same as per their convenience and send it anytime. For a full time employee it is hard to get annual leave in order to take training and exams. However with SVT, you can do it at anytime and a candidate is judged by his/her capability, talent, and knowledge, by completing different units of diploma, not by exams. I would like to convey my thanks once again to Matt King and Mike Watson for the support and guidance provided by them during course of my Level-5 Diploma.

I completed my QCF level 5 Diploma RMA HSC, With Mr Keith Rands in July 2017. I have had a really positive experience with SVT. I really enjoyed completing my Level 5 with Keith- Keith was always on the end of the phone/email if I needed him. The structure of the course was really easy to follow and Keith gave excellent guidance into how to submit evidence, and guidance through the units that were required to be completed. Towards the end of the award I was eager to complete, Keith was prompt on assessing and giving feedback on the work I had submitted, this helped me to see what I had left to complete. I had never written a dissertation previously, Keith was patient and supportive, when bombarding him with questions relating to this! Due to having such a positive experience with SVT and Keith especially, I have have now commenced my Level 7 in management and leadership with SVT. A huge Thank you to Keith and the support provided to enable me to complete my Level 5 RMA- I may not be completing my Level 7 if I had not had such a great tutor- Thanks again.

Robert Parsons - A-2-Sea Solutions Ltd

SVT have provided the appropriate level of support and guidance consistently throughout the two year course. The knowledge gained through providing evidence towards the course has not only benefited me personally, it has also benefited the business. The requirements of the qualification highlighted areas that required a deeper understanding of statutory requirements and a clearer understanding in report and policy writing. As a result of gaining a greater understanding of health and safety, I was able to provide a huge improvement in the company’s health and safety management system. If I was asked to recommend SVT for the course in NVQ level 5 in Occupational Health and Safety, it would be a definite yes. The turnaround time between submitting each unit and the supporting evidence and receiving feedback was very quick and the feedback was concise and informative.

I’m honoured to have chosen SVT for my NVQ Level-5 Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety. At the start of my course, I was a little worried on how I was going to manage all the course along with my work but quickly those feelings faded because of the professional guidance, great support and continued useful feedback provided by Mr. Matt King (NVQ portfolio Assessor), Mr. Mike Watson (Lead Assessor) and Mr. Darren Platts (ORDOSAFE CONSULTANCY) throughout my NVQ Level-5 journey. The friendly atmosphere provided by SVT and all the team was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and just amazing. During the course of my Diploma I noticed that SVT was really open minded in student’s opinion/suggestion by always expressing care about their students and try to make their course better and better in various ways. The Level-5 diploma in OH&S from SVT has truly developed me into a well-knowledge person in my Health & Safety profession.

I’m extremely thankful and will recommend SVT Ltd, to all my colleagues, friends and others who want to improve their skills in Occupational Health & Safety Practice qualifications.

NVQ Level 5 in Health & Safety now complete! Although it took longer than I had planned (life happened) it would definitely have taken far longer without the support of Matt King SVT assessor. Matt was available to offer a helping hand every time I phoned the SVT office. The team were polite and willing to help, and the course material I was sent from SVT helped during my learning and will continue to be a good resource in the future. I honestly believe that some things I have learnt have made a large impact within my workplace.

Having now completed the NVQ level 5 I would recommend SVT to anyone serious about taking on the task.

Having recently completed the Level 5 City & Guilds Health & Safety course, I can say that the course content was very comprehensive. It covered the main health and safety topics and had a varied range of difficulty.  I was able to answer many of the units without support. However, whenever called upon, the support from Matt was always there. Responses were efficient and helpful. This continued through the review process before submission. Comments were valuable and helped to improve the reflective accounts. I learned a lot as I progressed through the course and am delighted to have finally completed the course

Lester L. Bernales -

"It has been a daunting experience undertaking the online NVQ level 5 certification with SVT. Daunting in the sense that sometimes, it feels like you might give up. That you won’t make it. I have to admit that was what I felt in the beginning. But thanks to those guys over at SVT. Shout out to my online guiding light and assessor Matt King and others, I finally made it. Without their guidance and insight, I would be going around in circles trying to determine how to approach each questions in the units. Sometimes I’d be frustrated every time a unit I submitted for assessment will be returned not only once, for further refinement. Numerous times it had crossed my mind that it’s hard to align your way of thinking with those of the assessors’, wondering what they really wanted to see on your answers. But I took their comments constructively, knowing that nothing in this world is given for free. I believe all those comments during their assessments has guided me in the right path to finish all those units. It has greatly improved and increased my knowledge about health and safety management, and honed my skills further. Thank you so much to you Matt and your team at SVT. It has been a pleasure knowing you guys.
To those aspiring to further develop their knowledge and skills in health and safety management, look no further. With SVT, you’ll get your money’s worth. It can be challenging but it is well worth it. Well, life is all about challenges. Let SVT help you prepare in facing them. Don’t settle for less"

"I've recently successfully completed Level 5 Diploma - Leadership in Health and Social Care through SVT with the support of tutor Keith Rands. Keith was great, he kept things straightforward and simple to follow and was able to offer guidance and support at points during the course when I needed it. Keith kept me on track and gave advice on the optional units in order for me to get the most out of the course and ensure the content was relevant to my own work setting, providing information about resources and useful learning tools. As a full time worker with a busy home life I found fitting in the course challenging at times and again, Keith kept me focused! Thanks to SVT and Keith I now have the qualification and would highly recommend them for anyone considering them as a provider"

Walterlan Mendanha -

My study with SVT on Diploma of Health and Safety practices last year was a truly brilliant experience. From learning how to acknowledge the safety standards, to applying at both national and international markets, the course was filled with numerous opportunities for me to develop a wide range of skills.

I found that time management, organization and self-motivation were crucial qualities when certain aspects of the year became a challenge. However, I had full support from Matt King and Mike Watson to overcome these barriers. I was able to develop towards writing, learning and gain a wider appreciation for implementing certain management procedures. 

I would definitely recommend the SVT to anybody considering it and believe that learning is a key for development.

Graeme Loxley  - Eminox Health and Safety

"As a recent addition to the Eminox Health and Safety team last year, my first priority was to become experienced and qualified.

It was decided that an NVQ was the best way for me to gain both a qualification and gain knowledge at the same time. I began the course, Occupational Health and Safety NVQ level 3, around November last year and have spent the last seven months completing seven units. Approximately one a month, as suggested.

Each unit tackled a separate aspect of Health and Safety and enabled me to concentrate on a different area for each. Carrying out the separate units allowed me to gain practical experience as well as documenting my evidence

Throughout the course I had times when I struggled to complete some areas and found your help and guidance invaluable. I would recommend an NVQ to anyone who is starting out in a career in Health and Safety as it is, in my opinion, the best way to get experienced while working on a qualification"

Although the course was very intense, the journey was manageable and extremely flexible with my busy schedule. I am proud to announce that I have finally completed my ILM Level 7 qualification in Strategic Management and have also recently been awarded “Outstanding” by Ofsted for an inspection that I led for my School, Pavilion Prep at Repton Park, Woodford Green, IG8 8GQ.

First and most important thing is, that diploma providing the HSE Practitioners very good chance of learning HSE practice in practical way, where you will learn in proper way how to create and implement proper HSE Management system, what is the proper way to create, review and update your organization safety policies, and which methodology you could take to improve your organization safety culture, and how to ensure that all of that have been communicated properly to everybody involved.

Second thing making this diploma unique also than other HSE qualifications that it has entry requirement, where the candidate must be in HSE position that allowing him to submit proper evidences to cover the diploma criteria and to prove that he is implementing his knowledge into practical practice.

Third thing is that the candidate doesnt have to wait so long to see his achievement findings, as you will be motivated with each unit you complete and you will feel excited to go for the next unit till you achieve all units, and that what exactly happened with me.

All of that would never be achieved in this perfect way and time, without the great support that I have got from all SVT team from day one till now.

Once I enrolled with SVT I felt like I am being treated as VIP from all departments , where my emails and inquiries were being answered in few minutes only, my assessor Mr.Matt king was paying very high attention to support me through the diploma, and he used to motivate me every time I achieve one unit when sending the unit final report and appreciating my hard work and saying "well done"

The same approach I have got from Mr Watson the lead assessor, his advice during the diploma make it very interesting way of learning, and his guidance and support was unlimited and unbelievable.

In brief SVT is the correct selection for those looking forward to achieve the same unique qualification that lead you to become Grad IOSH.

“First I would like to take this opportunity to thank SVT for successful completion of my NVQ Diploma Level 05. I would like to thanks Mr. Matt especially for providing his valuable guidance and support during this duration of course. As my NVQ Portfolio Coordinator & Assessor, I found Mr. Matt a very professional person who assesses the units in a very timely and quality manner. His response on assessment was found very helpful for me to complete my units without any difficulty.

"Thank you for all your support.

I chose to study with SVT because I wanted to take the NVQ route rather than NEBOSH Diploma, it fitted flexibly around my work and home life, and they seemed to know what they were doing!

The course has been enjoyable and at times stretching, I feel it has given me a fresh perspective on H&S in general and expanded my H&S management skills in the context of my industry. The Coordinators and Assessors have been helpful, supportive and knowledgeable.

I would recommend SVT for anyone with a busy work/home life who wants to take a more flexible route to gaining the NVQ. I work across a number of sites in London/East Anglia so the remote working has suited me very well, and I have appreciated the occasional phone call with the assessor to ensure I am keeping on track and making the most of my work experience in my answers and evidence"

I would like to say, “A Challenging program effectively carried through. The broad reach and experience of the course helped me enrich the approach of my management in a positive way. In fact, I am taking home a diaspora of skills in H&S that shall be applicable to my daily work. It has helped me think critically about H&S matters. The process of teaching and learning through instructors and resources were extremely appreciative. It had both functional and technical reach. I personally thank Mr. Matt King along with Mike Watson for the support and assurance.

I have just completed my level 5 in leadership and management CYP and have really enjoyed putting my skills and knowledge into practice. I have learnt so much from this course as it has given me a completely different way of working that not only benefits my colleagues but of the young people I support in my day to day practice. It was really hard trying to juggle my time but once you dedicate a set time frame you surely get on the way. My goal is to continually support people I work with and enhance their practices as you never stop learning so to anyone who thinks they cant do this course you really can with the support from the SVT team. Good luck as I'm sure you will feel as I do, a great sense of accomplishment. Thank you SVT for keeping me on track and in achieving my new qualification, your amazing. All the best.

"As I am in full time employment, the most difficult for me was finding the time to sit down and getting to grips with the 10 units and supportive evidence required in this qualification. However 2 years is plenty of time to get through it, no excuse. When I did find the time I managed to complete my qualification in 4 – 5 months, thanks to the support from my company, family and the SVT assessors.
Training trough SVT was easy, course materials appropriate and the team at SVT were great too. My assessor and portfolio coordinator were very supportive at all times and put me in the right track to from the outset in meeting the criteria required for every unit. It is very helpful when you have knowledgeable people at the other end to help you learn through your qualification.
I really enjoyed my time doing this NVQ and would recommend SVT for others willing to take on a qualification through them.

‘Hi Matt. Thank you so much for your assistance with my studies for the NVQ Diploma in Heath and Safety over the past 18 months. Your marking has always been fair and reasonable. In fact, as an ex educator, it is important to me that the any training that I undertake is rigorous. If a course is too easy, it will not be respected by industry. I am confident that through my hard work, I have completed a course of study that I can be proud of. I enthusiastically recommend this course to anyone in the Health and Safety Industry that wishes to upgrade their qualifications. Thank you again to SVT and yourself for the encouragement. Your little prompts along the way when i fell behind, encouraged me to get focused & back on track to get my units in.’

I would just like to say how satisfied I am in the way you managed my portfolio and handle this in a holistic way as in line with the awarding body standards, and of course putting up with me.

I feel that I have grown to know you and how you work with the portfolios, in the time I was completing mine, I am very experienced in dealing with portfolios and clients as you know by now.

I appreciate the work that you do and what you had to contend with in the beginning with the other assessor not knowing which way to turn.

Mr Mike Watson is a very, very, good assessor and when you started working with him on my file, things started to improve around for me and you, you need to follow Mike Watson and his standard of assessing.

You need to take the next step on going up the ladder as you have what it takes and I know that you are ready, I just hope your employers realise the potential you have and what you can do for them.

I cannot wait to receive my certificates as this is an achievement for me at my age, as I did not think that I would be doing any more courses.

Can you give my thanks to Mike and Mandy for all their help and support and not forgetting you as without you I may not have completed this.

I will of course recommend S.V.T. / YOU to others up and down the UK on my travels Not for the £100 of course, but for the way S.V.T. managed me from start to finish and handle any situation that came a long in a very professional manner.

Well done to you and the Team at S.V.T.

"I've just passed my level 5 in Children's Home Management and I am so happy! My tutor Joanne was lovely and it was a pleasure to have her. She was lovely when she came to do my assessment and she gave me care and attention. It was so convenient for me to work from home doing this course and have my tutor on hand if I get stuck. I could do the course alongside working and my tutor really helped me to get it all done in time. I found the company to be very helpful and reasonable. Very good value for money I felt! It's really helped me progress in my career and stand out, as I put myself through the qualification. I'm not very academic but found the course great for someone who is more practical as allot of the questions were based on my practice. They were very understanding and helpful around my dyslexia too. Now I'm looking at what I can do next! Thank you Joanne!!!"

I found studying with SVT to be simple and straight forward.

Matt was quick to respond when I had questions and was a great help in me completing the course within the short timescale I had set as a personal target. I will recommend SVT to others ….

Mahmood Saleem - Descon Engineering Qatar

I had a great experience with SVT in this NVQ Level 5 course. It is competency based and helps you to identify your competence and improve your weak areas. The evidences you produce for the questions are assessed for quality of the document. When you explain your evidence in context of the question asked that gives you deep understanding of the topic under discussion.

Brilliant, may I take this opportunity to thank you and Mike Watson for your advice and coaching to achieve the qualification standard. It’s a testament to yourselves, that although I had difficulty in the beginning due to the nature of my work role whilst self-employed, that certain categories would have been difficult to evidence. Thank you for your continued support and patience, that once this position had changed (once I was employed in a higher health & safety management role), I was able to deliver the required evidences and your guidance on how to present this was crucial to the end result.

Great work guys!

Dionne Chetty  -

"I spent 6 years researching/trying to apply for a course relevant to my career which is vast, each time there was an obstacle, this was until I found SVT by going online. From day 1 SVT supported me, they had no prior contact with me, they gave me confidence, practical tips, Keith drove hundreds of miles to assess me. He was interviewing me with much thought and consideration, he gave me insight about de escalation , shift leading and had warm enthusiasm throughout. Mark would answer the questions I put to him, any time I called the office, convincing me I could get through the studies. He was also such a support to me for the duration of the course. I am utterly surprised at the dedication, way these professionals motivate students, how they have treated me with care, compassion and knowing how I have invested my life to give others a better chance of quality in their lives- they the assessors (Joanne was my assessor) promote diversity by empowering others. This company has had a knock on affect as I am going to set up a provision using some of the models I have learnt from SVT. 
Those who dont know about this company, SVT.
Should know"

Keith was so incredibly helpful throughout the course. he was always available when i needed help,its like he lived next door! He was also encouraging,positive,and kept pushing me even when i felt like giving up. So thank you Keith so much, I am the happiest person today!

Kim Everett  - Coastal West Sussex Clinical Commissioning Group

"Having recently completed the ILM L5 diploma in Leadership & Management I worked with SVT to complete the ILM L7 diploma in Strategic Leadership & Management. Cheryl Watson my assessor, was supportive without being intrusive and tailored the support to suit my needs, was responsive and clearly worked outside the usual 9-5 to assess my submissions and provide feedback, which I appreciated.

I felt that combining the first four units reduced the amount of work for me as SVT and Cheryl had structured them in a helpful and informative way so similarities between assessment criteria were captured and tasks arranged to capture all evidence required. This was hugely beneficial not only in terms of time, but also for direction and guidance.

As I had completed the ILM 5 , SVT accepted this as evidence of prior learning, thus reducing the number of units actually needed. cheryl also very helpfully crossed referenced my submissions where it was clear it could be mapped to other units and assessment criteria. I also found as I became more familiar with the format that I was able to cross reference my own work and these were supported by Cheryl.

In conclusion working with Cheryl and SVT has been a positive enjoyable experience for me personally, the format and distance learning approach suited my style of study and learning which enabled me to complete the required units in shorter time frame than anticipated. I am very much looking forward to the graduation!

Can I please take this opportunity to thank you for your support when completing Level 4 Diploma in Adult Care. I have gained a great deal of knowledge and further understanding of my role and responsibilities. It wasn’t always easy reading and ability to understand the wording of standards was quite challenging, the more I answered the easier it became. It took many hours of research/study to complete and on occasions it was difficult to find that extra time when working full-time, I am so pleased and in some ways relieved it is now finished. On a positive I am pleased I have completed, I feel more confident and knowledge aware in my role, thank you again for all your time and support during my time of study.

Sarah Wright  - Notts County Council

Right from the time that I enrolled on the course it was very easy and clear to understand what I needed to do and how I could get support if I needed it. I was supported to identify the course that was most appropriate to my needs and I was able to discuss the details of this with an advisor.

The course materials were easy to download and to understand with clear guidance on what was required to complete each unit as well as a objective to work towards.

Joanne, my tutor, has been amazing and even though we have never met face to face, I feel like she knows me, my learning style and the guidance that I need even when at times I've not been so sure myself. Joanne has been on the receiving end of all my emails and has always been quick with a response. The comments she provides on submitted assignments are always positive and have always motivated me to extended myself just a little bit more and because of this I have learned so much.

Keith came out to my place of work to complete the necessary observations. I was really nervous about this beforehand but was soon reassured. Keith was absolutely lovely and, like Joanne was extremely supportive in his comments and guidance.

I am delighted to have achieved my diploma and I am already considering what next. What ever it is SVT would be my choice and I would recommend that anyone wishing to develop their learning and career do the same

Thank you to you all

"I have experienced over the course of this training a few different emotions, at times I have felt that I was sailing along with the units with knowledge and experience in my sails blowing me across the ocean of Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care and at other times I felt as if I am stuck in the middle of this ocean with no wind. At these times I have looked to my tutor who has picked me up spoke to me helped me to realise that I do know the answers and have got the tools to get across this ocean.

Irena Lyczkowska - Catholic Children's Society

"It was not easy to identify an agency/company/training institution through whom I could undertake the Level 5 Management Course. From the first contact the staff at SVT were courteous, friendly and very helpful. The course itself was tough and I initially struggled with where and how to start. No information was provided on what books/materials might be helpful in undertaking the course but when I asked my tutor, she readily provided me with this information. It would have been helpful to have been given this at the very beginning when I was looking at the details of the course. Although I was advised to start by choosing an optional unit I was interested in, personally I found it easier to start with the mandatory units. These helped me to get into the way of studying required by distance learning, which was new to me. There were some issues re changes of tutor during the course but once these were resolved, my tutor could not have been more helpful and supportive. She was readily available, gave good feedback which included indications of how to improve the coursework. I felt she took a genuine interest in my work and I am very grateful to her for all her support, encouragement and assistance"

Roksana Nowicka   - Comfort care services

I had a very good experience with the svt. The staff is very understanding and when I needed to extend the course they supported me and I received an extension within one phone call. Keith, the assessor, was extremely helpful and guided me through the assignments whenever I needed any support. He even sent some additional information and samples of research which would give me an idea about what he expected me to write in the assignment. This was very useful, especially his guidance which enabled me to enhance my knowledge in some areas which I managed to identify as my limitations. Completion of this course made me become more self aware of my work and how it can influence others, so the staff I lead and the clients. Once Keith was away, other staff was always happy to help and my messages were responded within few days. Due to personal circumstances I requested for a date of observation at an earlier time that initially planned, and this was facilitated which I highly appreciated. As I am based quite of a distance from their office, Keith, my assessor travelled to the other side of the country to complete my observation at an earlier date  which was very polite of him. He was able to assess my work sometimes within one working day which I highly appreciated. Baring in mind his high work demands I would not expect a rapid assessment which surprised me with how profesional and work committed he is. I would highly recommend svt in the future as it was a good experience and I believe the diploma will open many doors on my future pathway.

"I was looking to progress my career in Health & Safety, and after extensive research on which route to take and with what company to use, I came across SVT Ltd, from the very beginning I found their team to be very approachable, and they were the only company who I felt explained the process of gaining my qualification I such a way that I was instantly comfortable with them, and I knew immediately that SVT Ltd were company that I wanted to use, and knew that they would help me to achieve my qualification.

As soon as I committed to using SVT, they sent me my units, and reassured me that the team were there to help and aid in any way possible, and this proved correct. At any moment where I had questions and quires on any unit, I knew that Matt King and Mr Watson, were always available to help and offer clear and concise information which ultimately would get me through my qualification.

I can honestly say that with out the help from SVT Ltd, and the way that they ease your concerns on any issues with the qualification, I would not of been able to complete my qualification, i would highly recommend SVT ltd to anyone who wants to progress their career in Health & Safety, especially if they want to work with a team that are approachable, and will go out of their way to help and aid you in any way possible.

It has been a complete pleasure to work with SVT, and I am eternally grateful for all their help from the beginning to the very end. Thank you again to everyone involved"

The course content was very comprehensive and completing it has undoubtedly made me a more effective leader. The pace of the course was suitable for what I wanted to achieve. Additionally, I found the course reading material highly relevant and the accessibility of the support from everyone at SVT, in particular Cheryl Watson, excellent.

When I received my new assessor Keith Rands i instantly felt supported. He could tell i was someone that need deadlines. My previous assessor with SVT set the units and left me to my own devices.. Keith gave me the push I needed to complete my course. He listened when my job became demanding and helped me to complete it in ways that suited me without affecting my job. He made its so i was able to learn and complete the course at the same time. He was very reassuring and supportive throughout. He took the time to establish what learning style worked best for me. I completed some units as a recorded discussion, he helped me to prepare for these and made me feel at ease throughout. I recommend him and SVT to anyone that has asked. I would like to thank him as had he not been assigned to be my new assessor I’m not sure I would have completed the course.

Angela Lee  - Ream Care

Even though I have worked in this field for over 15 years, the first year of my course for Health & social Care level 5 leadership at SVT was hard. I was incompetent in how to describe my wide range of knowledge into practical ways onto paper. However, Joanne guided me throughout my course by giving me a clear picture of the framework and informed me on how to perform my role by checking each question in every unit. She was very patient, calm and thorough in her work. She ensured that I reflected and implemented my skills and knowledge in the practice under legislative structured work.  She also reaffirmed my role as a registered manager, and how to manage teams effectively in order to deliver a high standard of performance.  Joanne upheld my confidence and motivated me to carry out my job competently.

I owe a HUGE THANKS to Joanne and SVT.

Barry Bishop  - St Georges Weybridge

When I signed up with SVT to undertake my NVQ Diploma in February 2017 I was apprehensive to say the least, it seemed such a challenging commitment. I had undertaken reflective learning before but that was 20 years ago and my experience then had been quite limited. But I was certain of one thing, I wanted to advance my accredited status as a Health and Safety Professional. So what initially had appeared daunting (eleven quite demanding looking units) soon became a very enjoyable almost cathartic experience with SVT. Here I was practicing OSH by day and in my down time I was able to think broad and deep about what I was actually doing. SVT facilitated this process in a very supportive way. When I was stuck SVT’s Matt King was on hand at the end of a phone ready to decipher some of the more testing requirements of the handbook units. Implicit in the SVT formula is the need for a disciplined approach. You need to set the time aside to do that reflection, that way you get most from it. If you are a practitioner in a health and safety role (and I think you need to be to get the most from this course) the satisfaction comes from realising that what you do encompasses more than you might think and reflecting on what you have done can contribute in a significant way to the completion of the diploma. SVT have a really useful qualification here and I for one would thoroughly recommend it.

Cheryl Watson has been a great mentor through this challenging course (ILM level 5) and has always been eager to help when I needed it. If I ever require support it was always very easy to get hold of Cheryl and she always sounded very enthusiastic and wanting to help. SVT have been great from day one and always  kept to their word when it came to getting back to me on certain matters and when I wanted to speak with Cheryl if she was not available they would always offer to help or put me in touch with someone else that can. I will definetly recommend SVT and Cheryl of course as you have all been very helpful and supportive through out my course. Thank you very much and a big Well Done to you all. Mladen Besevic

I am grateful for the support that Matt King & Mike Watson have given me whilst completing the Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice. Although being Deaf has never been a barrier to my successes in life it does often present logistical obstacles, Matt, Mike and Sean have been very understanding regarding this and have given time and energy to supporting me on the course.
I have already begun to feed things I have learned on the course into my day-to-day work which goes to show the benefits of undertaking such a qualification. As for my future, I do not intend to stop here, I will continue my professional development and attain chartered status and SVT has been instrumental in my route to this goal.

I am immensely proud of my achievement through SVT and I am thoroughly looking forward to graduation next year. Cheryl was exceptionally easy to talk to, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the 2 years working together. Cheryl was not in anyway pushy but if she had not heard from me in a while I would get a polite prompt or email asking if I needed any support.

Having recently completed my NVQ5 in Occupational Health and Safety I wanted to thank you and your team for the professional approach taken, the ease of getting started on my journey and the financial assistance offered to a ‘self-funder’ like me.
As a consultant it is sometimes very difficult to equate delivery of health and safety internally to your own management team as opposed to delivery of the same subject matter to a client based organisation due to the communication of the message being more ‘political’. Your team ensured that where ‘Square Pegs’ presented themselves, ‘Round Holes’ were adapted to suit. This qualification has really opened up the market for me. Thank you

After writing the exam and talking to other colleagues who also wrote but did not pass the exam , i am really happy i chose SVT. Looking at their course material ,ours was really extensive and detailed to the core. All the stress was surely worth the money, haha. Good Job guys, definitely coming back for another course.

I was so glad that my organisation selected SVT vocational training. Joanne Eastham was an absolute professional. She kept me up to date she was supportive and always was there for advice and help. Even when she she was not well she was contactable and completed my amendments to my assignment in a speedy cohesive manner.

Joanne showed understanding for my disability as I am dyslexic and never made me feel that this would hinder my process in completing my course successfully.

The electronic paperwork that was sent to me by SVT was competent, clear and precise. This helped me to understand fully what was needed from me when completing my assignments. And again Joanne was always at the end of an email or phone call if I needed any help and advice.

Keith Rands my observational assessor was very professional and helped to make me feel at ease with regards to assessing my paper work during my observation.

Overall I have found SVT service to be fantastic, outstanding and superb and will refer and use them again in the future. I would like to say a big thank you to the team at SVT for their support and guidance.

I have just completed an NVQ level 3 in occupational health and safety practice, and i just wanted to acknowledge how good the course has been. I work in the health and safety field at the moment, and this course was a fantastic way of learning and gaining more knowledge within health and safety at work. The presentation of the course is very easy to ready, and understand. A special thank you to Matt King who has helped me every step of the way! Matt was my portfolio manager and assessor. Matt was always on hand whenever I emailed him for feedback on my units, and he always got back to me quickly with any queries I had. I have never completed a NVQ online, but from my experience with SVT I could not recommend them enough to anyone. If you can put the time in to complete the NVQ, these guys will help you in every way possible. Thank you for all you help Matt and everyone at SVT, fantastic course and fantastic people.

 Whilst completing the City and Guilds NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with SVT, Matt King and Sean Watson were pivotal in my progress and completion of the qualification. 

Due to their support and guidance I had regular conversation to discuss the questions and evidence required.

Brilliant but hard course, challenging but rewarding. It was made easier by the support I received by my Tutor Joanne Eastham. Her continual contact and guidance, I am dyslexic and she over extended herself in supporting me. I am thankful and grateful, she made all the difference in me passing my course. We all need help and she, in fact, did support me as a Tutor being professional, setting boundaries, but motivating and encouraging me to get through. I appreciated it immensely. I have now passed.

Susan Heaton - Bradford Council

I have thoroughly enjoyed working through my NVQ 5 Leadership and Management course with SVT.  They have been extremely helpful when I was sure whether this course was for me and also when I got stuck with some of the questions, with suggestions of how to look at them , as well as the literature supplied which I found very useful and suggestions of what other literature could be looked at. 

My contact Cheryl always gave extremely good feedback and very quickly and I knew she was on the end of the telephone or email if I needed her, which has helped me progress with the course much quicker than I thought I would be able to do. 

I would recommend using SVT to my friends and colleagues without hesitation, partly due to the way I have been treated, but also because I consider it has been good value for money and will help me progress further with opportunities within my field. 

I look forward to working with them again when I plan to do my next NVQ.

I have just completed the City & Guilds NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety. SVT were invaluable in their flexible support through this learning process.

The interaction with my personal co-ordinator Matt helped immensely when submitting completed units and my assessor Sean was extremely helpful in explaining how things would be carried out and put me at ease with his approach.

I had previously tried a classroom approach to this Diploma which did not work for me at all. SVT provided an excellent alternative and I would thoroughly recommend using SVT when undertaking this qualification.

I would just like to place on record my appreciation of all the assistance provided by yourself and Sean throughout my study to complete the NVQ Level 5 in Occupational Health and Safety. 

Without the timely assistance and guidance received it would certainly have been far more onerous. 

If I were to give advice to any one undertaking this qualification, when you start keep going, read the guidance and listen to advice from your assessors.

I have just completed my NVQ 5 in Occupational Health & Safety working with SVT , from the start the process of registration was simple and I was made to feel welcome from day 1.

Having previously undertaken my Nebosh General Certificate in Health & Safety this was the next step in the process of continuous improvement for both myself and the business.The course in well laid out and staright forward, its takes some getting used but the level of support from the tutors in excellent which is fed back verbally and by via email making it very user friendly.

The team will guide and support you and have a genuine passion about what they do and why they are keen to take you to the next step, both Matt and Sean in particular helped me to develop and digest the course in a way that made it both challenging and interesting as well as providing vital feedback at all stages of the programme.

I can fully recommend this format of study, you can choose when to do it and the support network is both timely and appropriate, and if I had to do this again I would choose SVT.

The course also is good value for money considering the high level of content and its a great way of developing your career at a pace that suits you.

I started NVQ level 5 without any clear direction, with Matt Kings assistance and guidance, I managed to complete NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety. Matt's feedback provides me with clear direction and what is expected from the students, which enable me to submit suitable Course Work-reflective account as well as evidence. Mike Watson's positive and encouraging feedback encourage me to push ahead with course completion as well. It has been a pleasant journey to complete the course under the guidance of Matt King and Mike Watson. I strongly recommend SVT and NVQ Level 5 to all the Health and Safety Professionals.

Robert Certitude  -

When I started my course in Leadership and Management for Health and Social Care I thought it was going to be a walk in the park as I have a Bsc (hons) in health and Social Care plus the experience in the industry. However, I got it wrong as this course was demanding and challenging keeping me on my toes to meet the required standard and the time demand. But being in the good hands of my assessor Joanne all this was catered for enabling me to complete the course in time. Her feedback was not only useful but also professional packed with current legislation's and practices something that I treasure her for. For any one in this industry of health and social and they are looking to progress their career, I believe SVT is the place to go. I think it will be unfair to sign off without appreciating mr. Keith who came to my place of work for the assessment, his comments and advice and conduct reflected a true professional who cares about his students and left me with a challenge that how far I want to go with new skills and knowledge acquired. I believe soon I will call him back with an answer.

I would like to say a Massive thanks to my Assessor Joanne Eastham and also SVT. I have had some really good news this week and the major news was that I passed my course. I thought I would just get an email but my Assessor went out of her way to actually call me to congratulate me, which means a lot. There was time through my course were I doubted myself but my Assessor would support me not to doubt myself which in times you need. I had personal obstacles that but a small break in my course but my Assessor was understanding and I even when I thought just give it up so she fully supported to reflect on what I can achieve.

I will never forget the support Joanne has provided me and not only supporting to me to reflect on what I have achieved and capable of but also she had empathy and understanding as my first year of studying was a personal struggle.

There are not enough words to say, but thank you Joanne not even my mum who is an Assessor has lowed the chances of me sometimes doubting myself which you have a achieved. I know look back and think yes I can and yes I can achieve. Many Many Big Thanks to Joanne and SVT as this has supported me to do my next stage my Social Worker Degree for Children & Families.

I have just today found out that I will be receiving a pay rise after doing the course which is amazing. After my experience I will be sure to refer my colleagues and others who maybe interested in this course because everything about it especially my course assessor Joanne was faultless.

Mike Collins -

I now have a great deal of respect for this Qualification, I had a great deal of help from Matt (and it was needed) in putting my portfolio together. I spent many a long night at my keyboard and had to search deep for relevant evidence,

Shaun scrutinised each module and checked all evidence, leaving positive comments before passing any of them. I now feel it has all been worth it and would recommend this route to anyone, but don't go assuming this is an easy option; it's not and I will now give employees in my charge a greater level of respect when they present an NVQ for my inspection.

This was the first vocational course I had ever taken and one that had to be completed online. Initially I found this quite daunting, but can honestly say that my assessor had been fantastic throughout. Keith(assessor)was always just a phone call or email away. Keith would respond in a timely manner and support me in anyway he could.

Keith offered fair and concise feedback and would help point me in the right direction in the means of resources or where i struggled would ask me to put these into scenario formats. Keith's lively and jovial manner helped keep me upbeat and confident in my progress.

The whole process from start to finish has encouraged me to further my career development, of which will be undertaken with SVT.

Thank you for all your help and support Keith, you deserve a medal.

I want to use this opportunity to say a very big thanks to Matt King and Sean Watson for their unalloyed support and effort towards ensuring that I successfully complete the NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice.

After my first unit went through with encouraging positive feedback and correction via emails and telephone conversation from both Matt and Sean, which was motivational, to ensure I provide suitable and sufficient answers while answering all questions accompanying every outcome, and provision of concrete and quality evidence. I now gained confidence, zeal and speed which made it possible for me to complete the course in a smooth and professional manner.

Mr. Keith has been constantly enthusiastic, cheerful, energetic, patient, knowledgeable, supportive and I feel very lucky to have him as my assessor.

Michael Norton  -

"The guidance and advice received from the team was second to none. Whenever I emailed or called Sean Watson or Matt King they were always accommodating no matter the time of the day.

For example due to the nature and location of my work I called Matt for advice and he took my call even tho he was due to finish his days work and stayed behind after hours to give me the guidance required to complete the section in question. If I emailed either Sean or Matt I always had an answer with in a day or two never any more which is a testament to them both as I know they are extremely busy and have a number of candidates to answer.

The guidance I received from both Sean and Matt was every direct and clear, I always understood what they wanted me to do and how they wanted me to present the evidence and the reflective account.

The initial guidance and documentation you receive from SVT is presented excellently and very easy to follow, it is lain down in such a way that it is never confusing and easy to follow which is a big help when starting the course.

I do believe if it was not for the expert guidance and tutor support from Mr Seam Watson and Mr Matt King I would not have completed this diploma.

I cannot speak highly enough of these two gentlemen and would like to extend my gratitude to the both of them

I would highly recommended SVT to anyone that is thinking about completing the City and Guilds NVQ level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety practices"

This course was the first course I have done which has not been classroom based and to be honest I was a bit sceptical at first but as soon as I spoke to my assessor Matt King he put my mind at rest. The course was explained in detail and I particularly liked the way I could fit the course work in with my current job.I was supported by Matt throughout course and he was easily contacted if I had any queries. I would recommend SVT for any future courses and I will definitely be booking my next course with them.

"Being a HSE professional It was always my dream to achieve GradIOSH membership which was only possible if you pass NEBOSH or IDposh international diploma.Luckily one of my colleague informed me about SVT who provide online assessment for City&Guilds NVQ level 5 diploma in occupational health & safety practice which is equivalent to NEBOSH & IOSH international diploma to apply with IOSH for Graduate membership. After working day & night I managed to pass this diploma which taught me revision of all the professional things that I am practicing since last 13 years as a HSE professional.

My experience with SVT has been great. SVT were very helpful with initial enquiries before deciding upon training provider, thus along with their helpfulness & competitive pricing were the ideal company to meet my needs. They were there when assistance was required, but left you alone whilst working on the units, a perfect balance. Matt has been great, advising well when I had a touch of writers block. I would definately utilise them in the future. Thanks to all concerned at SVT

Mark Cardwell - Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Services
Throughout my NVQ Level 5, I found SVT to be extremely helpful and professional. The first experience was a workable payment plan was created to assist me in funding the qualification which was a big part of me choosing the provider.
 
I began my journey with SVT providing me with all the necessary documentation, supporting documents and guidance needed to complete the qualification.
I received a phone call from my course tutor advising the best approach to take and explained the supporting documentation to me. I was also invited to meet face to face with my course tutor and NVQ coordinator.
 
Throughout the course, I was given excellent guidance and advice from not only the assessor but the NVQ coordinator, who ensured my work was checked thoroughly before being assessed. I found this approach to be very beneficial as it enabled me to focus on the finer details and ultimately improved the way I approached units. The speed in which SVT turned units around, once I had submitted them, was impeccable.
 
I attended the interview part of the qualification with a few nerves. The assessor made me feel really easy and assisted me in losing my nerves and concentrate on the practical side of what I do. As a result I found the time flew by and I had covered all elements required.
 
On the whole I would highly recommend anyone who wishes to complete the NVQ level 5 qualification to use SVT if they wish to experience professionalism at its highest.

Olugbenga Greg Ojeaga - Metro Green line Underground - Qatar

The best decision that I have made this year career wise, was to enroll with SVT

to start my NVQ course.

 

The road however was not easy at the initial stage as my work load did allow me have the time to get myself composed. With regards to this I started to give myself 3 hours ever day after work to enable me to study and have a good write up. The most amazing part during my studies was

Matt King's emails after I submitted a completed module.  His feedback was amazing and gave me the opportunity to widen my studies and research in my

workplace. It also made me more composed.

 

Iwant to use this opportunity to thank every members of SVT who in one way or the other helped me during my studies: Sean, Matt and my wonderful friend Phil, etc.

 

I have so far implemented all I have learnt during my studies in my workplace. SVT

stands out to be the best as I will always recommend friends colleagues to

enroll the NVQ level 5 diploma course.

Thanks

Due to personal issues and work commitments it has taken me longer than I expected, but got there eventually. I was fully supported throughout the course by Matt King; he helped me prepare each unit ready for assessment and was always on hand to answer any questions. In my opinion SVT are a professional and dedicated company, and I would recommend to anyone to use them in order to further their development in their career.

My second assessor Claire Ryan was very helpful indeed and I valued her feedback and reassurance to get me through- Thank you Claire.

I admit to choosing SVT to study my OH&S L5 diploma mainly because they were the best value company I found but I was also impressed with their response to my initial enquiries. They are a highly professional and competent training provider.
I have recently completed the City and Guilds Level 5 NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with SVT within 8 months, in which I felt fully supported throughout the course.
At each stage the assigned assessor has provided timely and professional feedback on the material and evidence provided for each reflective account submitted. 
Mr. Matt King, my Portfolio Coordinator was great, he was very helpful when it came to any queries I had and responded swiftly with the Assessors feedback upon submission of each unit.
My Assessors Mr. Sean, Mr. Mike Watson, Mr. Simon were also very pleasant and helpful and very quick to respond with his feedback to my units.
For those looking to achieve a ‘Diploma’ in health and safety, I would whole heatedly recommend SVT and the NVQ Level 5 route. I will certainly be using their services again!

I completed the NVQ level 5 diploma in H&S starting September 2014.
It was explained very well with the joining package which included all the units, example documentation and the actual documents I needed to complete the qualification. 
It was explained by Matt at SVT that they had an on-line portal I could access, which contained example documents and other visual aids to help with completion of the diploma.
The diploma took me two years to complete however this was due to family bereavement rather than difficulty of the qualification. This was explained to the team and support was fully given. 
If you work in H&S day in day out, you will have no difficulty obtaining the evidence you need for the units. Matt and the team are with you all the way and are always on the end of the phone to support and advise.

Thank you, SVT and all members of the organization for this opportunity to express my gratitude and time spent with several members of SVT while working on my NVQ level 5 diploma in occupational health and safety practice and I am lucky to come across such a supportive and extremely talented team of SVT.

I had several questions regarding NVQ level 5, I was totally confused and bewildered and I was thinking constantly about assessors and most important TIME, and I thought it will take a year or 2 to complete this diploma. The day I started working on my NVQ level 5 I realized that my assessors are highly professional and cooperative and the way they explained everything was simply amazing. I never felt like I am being ignored, I was always answered and SVT’s reply to my queries was unbelievably prompt and understandable. 
I completed my NVQ level 5 diploma within 6 months. While working on it I came to know that it was not as difficult as people think it is, this diploma course not only enhanced my knowledge but it also made me a good decision maker, I had tremendous amount of evidences to support my answers in each unit and through this diploma course I learned that which particular document serves which purpose and through this course I learned how to work in a dignified and proper manner.
I would highly recommend NVQ level 5 diploma in occupational health and safety practice from SVT to those who really want to learn something.

I have just successfully completed the NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with Specialist Vocational Training (SVT). When I enrolled NVQ L5 OHS Diploma, I was scared whether can I complete the course successfully? The proactive communication from Mr. Matt King slowly gave me the confidence to involve myself in the course. Mr. Sean Watson sculpted me effectively, by giving knowledgeable suggestions which made me to complete the reflective accounts related to auditing, risk assessment and emergency procedure in a highly proficient manner. During Professional discussion, he guided me very well. Without the guidance of the above experts, it is not an easy task for me to achieve this dignified qualification. My hearty thanks to all of them and I am very sure these eminent professionals are very great asset to SVT. Looking forward to do more HSE professional course with SVT in nearby future!!!

About three years ago I needed to make a big decision as I came to one of those elusive cross roads in life. I have always worked in Adult Social Care and to be honest was quite happy rolling on , however I started to feel a little unfulfilled. Two years ago at my annual PADP I requested further development training and asked if I could complete my QCF 4 Adult Social Care qualification . My Manager and my employer declined me the opportunity for further training , do it was at that point I decided to do it myself and I discovered SVT on line and rang the very same day.

I spoke to a lovely member of the team who explained all the available options of both learning styles and payment deals .The whole thing was just so easy , I was allocated a lovely assessor called Jo who was so nice and she supported and helped me all the way through the whole of my qualification.She was on hand either by phone or email and was so knowledgable and understanding. 
12 months later fully finished , fully qualified and now in new Care Management role , with a pay rise and the opportunity to progress . It couldn't of worked out better for me thanks to SVT , I would definitely recommend this company they were fantastic .

Ross Linsell - QHSE Manager -

Having recently just completed my Level 5 NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice I would strongly recommend this course to anyone wanting to expand their knowledge in all aspects of Health and Safety matters.

 

This course not only allowed me to gain further understanding of Health & Safety Practice but also helped me improve in my own ability to write reflect statements, which in turn has helped when writing my CPD and how to reflect on work that I do every day in my current role as a QHSE Manager. This course taught me something about myself in that when I review how I have completed a task that I am able to analyse my own performance from who, why, how, where, when, what went well and where I could improve.

 

The support I received from SVT was second to none and my NVQ Portfolio Coordinator, Matt King was always available to help guide me when I need to expanded or include more detail within my reflective statements.

 

The skills I have gained have already helped me improve in my day to day activities and has put me in a position to change with membership status with IOSH from Tech to Grad.

 

I would recommend SVT to anyone thinking of completing Health & Safety training and in the future will be using them again myself.

Thank you SVT for steering me through the OHSP Diploma administration process, which is a format that I soon got the hang of. Although I never actually felt the need to ring up and ask about any of the course subject matter, I realised that support was available at SVT should I have needed it. Having struggled at times, I persevered and dug deep to create the necessary evidence in support of the written work that I had provided. I had a bit of a gap during the middle part of the course, due to being overstretched at my workplace, but then picked up the mantle again several months down the line in order to successfully complete all the objectives. Thank you Matt King for the meticulous scrutiny of my work and also thank you to Mike Watson for providing constructive feedback on all the Units. I would recommend SVT for any other potential candidates wishing to complete the C&G level 5 Diploma in OHSP.

Prior to starting my studies with SVT I researched several organisations to see which one could offer the best training experience, not just in terms of cost but also support. I chose SVT based on testimonials that I read on their web site as well as the fact that SVT were very competitively priced. I am so grateful that I chose SVT. Distance learning can be a lonely and daunting experience however from initial enquires to completion of the course communication has been second to none, and I have always been able to communicate with tutors, who we very understanding given the amount of e-mails I was sending!!! Due to all the help and support I received, I managed to complete the qualification in 4 months which I am delighted with. I would especially like to thank Matt and Abi for their support during my studies. I whole heartedly recommend SVT as a training provider to anyone who is looking for a professional, reliable course provider.

Michelle Wood - Cobalt Housing

I looked at a number of organisations who could provide the Diploma in Health and Social Care. I found that SVT were very professional and they telephoned me a couple of times to talk me through the diploma and to check it was the right option for me; I was reassured that I would not be enroled unless SVT felt I could gather sufficient evidence to complete it. I was also happy with the cost of the course and the option to spread payments.

I found the assessor I was allocated to be very supportive and quick to assess each unit; I received feedback within a couple of days. When the assessor visited me to undertake the observation part of the assessment, she really put me at my ease.

I managed to complete the diploma in just under 12 months and I have recently secured a new job, where they are happy that I have achieved this qualification.

I would not hesitate to recommend SVT and I have already recommended them to one of my colleagues.

I have recently completed the City and Guilds Level 5 NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with SVT in which I felt fully supported throughout the course. Matt King provided valuable assistance and with his keen eye for detail, helped me to submit each unit ready for assessment and was on hand to answer any questions.
I had to take several months away from the course due to change personnel circumstances including Armed Forces to civilian transition after 25 years.
SVT are a professional, flexible and dedicated company, I would wholly recommend to anyone thinking of committing themselves to the range of courses on offer.

I started my NVQ in management a little while ago and with the pressures of work soon started to lag behind and almost gave up. It was taking ages to get any units completed. I would get an email for SVT just touching base and Joanne my assessor was so encouraging and kept in touch. She was always there so encouraging with an email asking if I needed support and reminding me that I can contact her to ask questions. Every time she send feedback she would say things like “almost there” or “another unit completed, well done” She was so lovely and thoughtful. I was able to ring her and talk things through with her. She always responded to my emails. When I sent a completed unit she would respond just to let me know she has received it and letting me know that she would be marking it soon. I felt that Joanne really cared about me doing my best. If I were to do further on line study the first place I would go to would be SVT, they are just GREAT!!

SVT have been very supportive during the 6 month period it has taken me to complete this qualification. 
At each stage the assigned assessor has provided timely and professional feedback on the material and evidence provided for each reflective account submitted. 
I found the study format easy to manage, made simple by providing demonstrative examples through my personal experiences, previous assignments, EHS initiatives, and the current programmes implemented on the project and I would recommend this format to aspiring EHS professionals.

I am writing this testimonial with great appreciation of all the support I had from SVT throughout my studies. 
I studied the Level 5 in Leadership and Management whilst I was a new mum and sometimes i struggled but i managed to pull through with the right support from the tutors at SVT. 
I also liked the fact that I could pay my course in instalments which worked out well for me as I was on maternity leave. I know i put myself under pressure by achieving all my pass a couple months earlier than expected but I am proud of myself. 
I am proud to now hold this qualification and look for a better job role and put all my expertise into practice. So it's a big Thank You SVT I couldn't have gotten this far without you.

I have finished the NVQ Level 5 in Occupational Health and Safety with you and just wanted to let you know that I made the right decision in taking this course with SVT.

It has only taken me about six months and this is down to the excellent service and prompt responses from everyone especially Matt King who must have the patience of a Saint.

Please pass on my thanks to everyone involved as they were fantastic.

I know that I had to be disciplined to get this course completed but it was the excellent service and quick turnaround of assessed units that compelled me to press on and complete in the shortest time possible for me.

‘I cannot thank the team at SVT enough, especially Matt King, for the support and encouragement they provided me in gaining my NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice. No query was too silly and I never had to wait an age for feedback on reflective accounts. There was also always someone available to talk to.
The Diploma may seem daunting at first but SVT soon put me at ease and guided me smoothly through the process of qualification.

My experience of SVT is that they are a highly professional and competent training provider. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is considering furthering their H&S career through vocational training.’

When you get opportunity, please would you e-mail me the approved versions of my reflective accounts.

Best regards, Matt, thank you for everything and best wishes for the future.

As with my previous course, both the support and professional approach of Mr Matt King and the team at SVT has been excellent. They have guided me smoothly through the process of the diploma, which has subsequently allowed me to progress my career within Health & Safety.

Thank you! It all started when my Deputy Mr. Steven Platts have shared this training provider details with us on the project. 
At the same time Steven’s brother, a great and inspirational HSE Director, Mr. Darren Platts have appraised NVQ 5 being satisfied with what was offered on the way becoming CMIOSH! 
And as FYI I will have the pleasure and the honor to be the first Macedonian and a guy from the Balkans in General that went thru this process and go advanced much beyond my current OSHA Certification/Membership and experience! …

Abi Jones came after and helped me out with starting the process along with the assessors Matt and Simon…Thank you! Will recommend to others. Participation was very rewarding and interactive. Thank you for your flexibility with respect to our tough working schedule. Very useful and definitely thought provoking… Module style was clear and interactive – great, friendly and fun. Catered to all levels, which was good for those just starting out and those with more experience. Thank you for your criticism and showing me again what we should concentrate ourselves primarily while implementing Safety. Enjoyed thoroughly this opportunity to reflect. Certainly all Safety and Construction Professionals would benefit from this Training…Thank you!

Please find attached completed feedback form.  What the form doesn’t allow me to convey is my gratitude to you.  You’ve been very professional throughout my dealings with you; you’ve always come back to me promptly whenever I’ve had cause to contact you, your comments have been constructive and helpful, and have been instrumental in enabling me to navigate the qualification in the time that I’ve been able to.  In terms of the wider SVT experience I have to say I’ve found it very positive.  The documentation is helpful in deciphering the intent of the questions and in selecting appropriate evidence to help back demonstrate competence, and the contact with my portfolio co-ordinator was regular, timely and constructive.  I have seen feedback on other training providers reporting that candidates feel slightly left to their own devices and unsupported through this qualification, I have to say that this is certainly not my experience with SVT, their documentation aids the understanding and navigation of the course, my portfolio co-ordinator was helpful and  usually responded to emails the same day.  Due to all the help and support i received, I managed to complete the qualification in 10 months which I am delighted with.  I received by certificate by email within a week or so of completion, enabling me to apply for Grad IOSH immediately.  A five star experience, at a great price, if only all professional training and development was this well run.

10/10.

I have recently completed the NVQ level 5 diploma in Occupational health and safety practice with SVT. I chose SVT after reading feedback given from previous students regarding the NVQ 5 diploma and also regarding the level of professionalism the staff at SVT offer. From initially contacting SVT I dealt with Abi Jones, she was very helpful and give me all the information that was requested. Initially starting the course it was a bit daunting to take on considering I have a demanding job working in the middle east and not a lot of free time. But with the continual support from Matt and Simon it made the process easier. Again thanks to Abi, Matt and Simon and I will definitely be using SVT in the future for other courses which you have available . And would recommend anybody who wants to progress in safety to sign up and undertake the NVQ 5 diploma

It has been a pleasure for me in spending time with SVT for my professional development in the form of NVQ Level 7. As far as the course content, encouragement, continuous support and feedback process are concerned, I appreciate SVT staff (mainly my assessors) for being far beyond excellence, keeping in their mind my busy day-to-day work schedule.
I appreciate the promptness and timely actions on all my emails and enquiries and I would rate the service as excellent.
In a nutshell to say “I enjoyed my time with SVT”.

I have completed NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with Specialist Vocational Training. SVT is a fantastic organization of passionate professionals who are generous in providing enormous support for building people’s career path to next level. Without a doubt in my mind, this was the most life changing professional development experience of my 20+ years in health and safety practice. This professional development embodies what we now know about professional learning: it must be job-embedded, long-term for implementation, community-driven when adopting to good work practices and passion-based. I have no hesitation to state that NVQ-5 is the best model of powerful learning media where one will understand precisely one’s role and responsibility for Health and Safety Practitioner that generally benefit to the business in broader sense. I personally have all regard for NEBOSH Diploma but NVQ-5 is distinctly different comparatively far superior and has clear edge over it, since in the journey of NVQ-5 Learning, one would know as what one is doing, how is doing and most importantly why is doing, whether in line with expectation/regulations requirements business interest. At the completion of this journey, one never forgets precisely and practically one’s Role, Responsibilities and Duties but however contritely that is not the case with NEBOSH Diploma, where there is every possibility of leaving behind/ overlook the learning once the exam taken as far as implementation of Health and Safety Practices at work place is concerned. I see my journey with NVQ-5 as value addition in making a better tomorrow and I am sure that all who undergone NVQ-5 journey has same opinion and I am confident that all those intended to take NVQ-5 journey will have similar view. Last but not least the team led by Mike at SVT is remarkable. Matt and Simon are so credible and knowledgeable that they would keep the person at ease all the time during NVQ-5 learning session and as such my experience was wonderful. I am so empowered by the experience. Thanks Matt, Simon and Mike for being so supportive all though my NVQ-5 journey. If you have the chance, try it! Make the chance, be the change you want to see in the world, because most likely they will be doing in a very proficient manner!

“If anyone ever wanted to embark on educational pursuits be it vocational or classroom based, I certainly would recommend Specialist Vocational Training SVT in a heartbeat. The Customer Service delivery of SVT is exceptional and second to none. Philip Jewitt registered me on the NVQ 5 Diploma in Occupational Safety and Health without any fuss and in record time. Oh my! My Course Induction (which by the way is a first of its kind for any vocational studies) by Matt King was highly professional, very unique and really formed the bedrock on which I excelled in this Program, completing it in record time – 3 months. I owe a lot of gratitude to The Lead Assessors Simon Vickers and Mike Watson who painstakingly assessed my Portfolio evidences and constantly advised me on areas that required improvement. They also appreciated my good work ethics and quality delivery in the feedback assessment reports. Matt King is a dynamite and I am most happy to have known him and learned under him as my Portfolio Coordinator. He made sure he simplified all bottlenecks I encountered on my Journey. SVT is the real deal people. Sign Up with SVT already!!!!”

I work in Qatar for Gulf Drilling International as HSE Supervisor. My current target is to achieve CMIOSH status and I was making research to decide which route to take through NEBOSH Diploma or NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety. I decided to go with NVQ after reviewing the statistic of voting people in the internet which was 61, 62% NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety against 38, 38% NEBOSH Diploma. I chose SVT after holding an on-line chat with Abi H-Jones who satisfied me with all answers to my questions and assisted me with enrolment. 
Initially I did not have any idea about this course and my first introduction was with Matt Portfolio Coordinator through the phone who explained me all process and asked some questions from one of the Units and confirmed my understanding of the questions and process. It took me 6 months to complete the course and during this time it was really pleasure to work with people like Matt, Simon and Mike who are very professional and helpful. What I like is I got answers to all my questions during my study immediately and I appreciate that, which proved how well organized SVT team.
I would highly recommend SVT course provider to any persons looking to further their professional qualifications, SVT assessors (Matt, Simon and Mike) are very professional and friendly. I would like to take this opportunity to appreciate all SVT team I worked with (Matt, Simon and Mike) and supported me during my study and gaining this qualification. 
I wish SVT team all the best and keep it up guys.

I have enjoyed my time working towards the Diploma qualification and have had very good support from the SVT team throughout the duration of my studies. I was able to recognize the extent of my experience and have opened me to new horizons. I was able to obtain advice and support from Matt, Simon and Mike, when required throughout the course and I received good, clear positive feedback on each module completed. I would highly recommend Specialist Vocational Training and will have no second thoughts for using them again for another course.

‘I’m very pleased to have completed the Level 5 Diploma in OHS and found the support given by SVT to be very useful and constructive. SVT were prompt in returning feedback and notification of completion of the units as I finished them. I have recommended to other colleagues and professionals who I have crossed paths with to consider SVT as their provider should they opt to do the Level 5 themselves.

 

I have received the completion certificate PDF for the course very quickly with hardcopies, I’m told on the way shortly. I have now applied for GradIOSH status of my membership with IOSH as this course allows me to meet the requirements to do so.

I was given a high level of support throughout the whole of the qualification, from the very beginning with ease of access to the website information, email correspondence to the one to one telephone mentoring sessions when I needed them. 
I had to take time out during the qualification due to workload and with the help of Mr Matt King, Mr Mike Watson and Mr Simon Vickers I was guided back into the course with ease. Their professionalism made a very difficult qualification much easier to understand and allowed me to complete it far quicker than I had originally envisaged.
I highly recommend using SVT Ltd for further training and qualifications.

I find the support and encouragement from the assessors and entire staff of SVT very professional and cordial. I have a very busy workload and combining that with studies was almost near impossible for but the staff at SVT were there for me in spite of all odds. I would recommend aspiring candidates who want value for money/studies to use SVT as I find them very thorough, encouraging and above all the staff were always was there whenever you need them unlike most organistaion with answering machines.

I have completed my NVQ L-5 Diploma in OHS Practice with SVT, I would state that during my learning time I have found the commitment by the SVT assessors and staff in order to establish the effective communications and consultation is essential and well managed, and the assessor’s feedback and guidance were always constructive and helpful to me, so It is relay a remarkable experience to interact with the assessors in order to recognize my abilities by a qualified and competent person. From the first day that I have started my learning I was impressed how the study guides and learning material are properly organised and clear. NVQ is not just a qualification it is about are you competent or not, if yes then keep it up, prove it and gain it, if no then work out and improve your practice at your workplace, and gain it at the end of the day. Thanks to all SVT assessors and staff.

At present I am currently employed as a QHSE Advisor within a major platform drilling company, responsible for multi-client portfolio delivering the companies QHSE directives and programmes to the workforce; working closely with my client to ensure that their safety rules and client specific procedures are also embedded into our working routines.

Although I have vast experience in operational years, it has been many years since I have been involved in any studies in attaining qualifications to the level of NVQ Diploma. At the time I must say that I was slightly nervous about taking on such a big commitment as I was well aware of the scale of the journey to be taken

SVT, from the start were extremely professional and proficient with time taken to explain the overall process, level of detail expected within my module submissions along with the detailed support documentation and strong witness testimony. The continual email interaction and guidance provided throughout by you along with the module feedback from the assessors certainly gave me the drive to keep going when some modules were proving more of a challenge than others

I would have no hesitation in recommending SVT Ltd to any of my peers, colleagues or friends who are up to the challenge in gaining further professional qualifications.

When i started doing Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for health and social care in Nov 2015 i was very impressed with how the course was organised which allow me to complete work on own time. The support i received from SVT customer service team especially Abi H- Jones was absolutely fantastic and first class. My Assessor Claire was also brilliant, she is very professional and knowledgeable in her field. She gave me guidance and support i needed to be able to complete my course. When faced with some difficulties she was there for me just a phone call away offering solution and always eager to help. At the end i got motivated and inspired to finish my course in 8 weeks time. I will recommend anybody who is serious of about taking their career to new level faster to get in touch with SVT team and improve quality of people's lives.

Personally, I’d like to thank you Matt for your promptness and support and I’d like to extend my thanks to Mike and Simon for their constructive feedback and support along the way.

SVT Ltd is without a doubt my provider of choice for a Health and Safety Qualification. The course information and guidance provided was without exception timely, clear and concise, however it was the relationship with my dedicated advisor and assessor that differentiated SVT from their competitors. Matt King and Simon Vickers were always professional, accessible and a pleasure to deal with. With their wealth of knowledge and experience, they made me feel confident in my own ability to achieve this qualification even though it had been many years since I had last undertaken formal study. Having just completed my NVQ 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice, I wouldn't hesitate to use SVT to increase my qualifications further and recommend them most highly to anyone embarking upon a similar learrning path.

Thanks a lot to all SVT team for completion of City and Guilds NVQ L5 Diploma. I had nice time especial with Mr. Matt & Mr. Simon.

Firstly i compared NEBOSH Diploma against the CG NVQ Level 5. I found that any person can study the NEBOSH Diploma but you can only study the CG NVQ if you are working in Health and Safety. It is also based around my daily working role. SVT make you feel very comfortable and give excellent cooperation

From joining the course with SVT back in 2014, the process from registration to start up was simple and easy. I was assigned a tutor through time with SVT on assisting me with any queries regarding the units, evidence requirements etc. Matt has been extremely helpful and efficient in responding to my emails and calls. I would highly recommend SVT to anyone else looking to gain training qualifications in this field. They have been a pleasure to deal with during this time when the course has sometimes been a nightmare.

I recently completed my Level 5 NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety Practice with SVT Ltd, and whilst it was quite a demanding course the support and guidance given helped me to overcome all challenges and follow my planned schedule.
Working offshore meant that I could gather evidence and draft answers during that period and then complete Units whilst on leave time. This needed a degree of flexibility to do this, and SVT were very accommodating to allow me to work in this way. I would highly recommend this course and using SVT to help you achieve this qualification.

I decided to use SVT Ltd as course provider for the NVQ 5 in Occupational Health and safety as they offered very competitive rates. The cheap cost did not affect the support and service I was given.

I would definitely use SVT Ltd again and would recommend them to others.

Once enrolled, I was very impressed with the level of support given and the ability to start in my own time. I had very limited time and needed to finish the course quickly. I was very impressed with the support given by my tutor. I work full time and this course was brilliant as I did not have to attend college sessions and do the work in my own time. I am very grateful for the support given by my tutor and would like to thank her for working hard to finish the course in such a short time. I was very impressed with the quick response either phone call or email when I had issues with certain assignments. I would certainly recommend the course to anyone!

I was able to obtain advice and information from the Portfolio Assessor when required and found the support network provided by Specialist Vocational Training helpful throughout the course.

 The 10 individual reflective accounts which I submitted were processed and marked in a timely and professional manner and I received good, clear positive feedback on each module completed.

I would highly recommend Specialist Vocational Training and would have no hesitation in using them again.

Great work Matt and Simon

Well what can I say about this course? Yes it’s a slog, lots of hard work, late nights and weekends pulling together witness statements and evidence: it can feel that it’s never ending but eventually it does! It’s worth the hard work; I have only recently completed the Level 5 Diploma but by undertaking the course my confidence has grown immensely, I have secured a pay rise and obtained a couple of interviews! 
I couldn’t have completed this course without the help provided by SVT personnel, specifically, Matt (King) and Simon (Vickers). I confess that in the past I have always shied away from distance learning feeling that it would be a lonely endeavour with no one else to spark off or l would not be able to gain the motivation to maintain momentum. I learnt very quickly that this was clearly not the case. Matt’s help and feedback were invaluable in steering me on the way to success. I don’t know how many people he deals with on a daily basis but he never kept me waiting, replying to emails within the day, gently cajoling me in the right direction and always happy to chat through problems on the phone. Matt and Simon, who undertook my professional discussion, both equally helpful, steered me through the hard times allowing me to complete this course in less than 5 months. I have enjoyed the experience immensely and would wholeheartedly recommend SVT to anyone wishing to try distance learning!

Just to say a massive thank you to Matt whilst completing the Level 3 NVQ Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety.

At first glance of the e-Portfolio I found it pretty daunting, but after my initial induction with Matt I got to grips with it pretty quickly.  I won’t say that this is an easy course and it certainly took some hours to complete. At some point I didn’t ever think I would finish the tasks. However Matt was helpful and professional at all times, extremely patient with all my queries which were answered promptly, and for pointing me in the right direction when further information was required.  I would certainly recommend this course, and SVT, to anyone who is thinking of doing their NVQ Level 3.

Chris Ogden - CJO Safety Solutions UK

After deciding to further my training by going down the NVQ route, I carried out extensive research on the available online training companies. The one name that kept cropping up was SVT and the feedback on health and safety forums was mostly excellent if not good, the deciding factor for me was the ease of the signing up process and the payment plan to help with the finances. The course was made a little easier with the support, patience and great sense of humour from the SVT team and especially from Matt King. I have now completed the NVQ level 5 Diploma in Occupational health and safety and would not hesitate from using or recommending SVT for future training needs.

“Everything with SVT was great! The website & login account was simple, yet easy. Information provided on it was precise and well structured. The coordinator and assessors were professional, supportive & quick to response; especially Matt, Mike and Simon were very kind & encouraging. It took me 2 years to complete my NVQ Diploma but without this guidance and support I would not have done it. I am glad that I had chosen SVT for my qualification and would recommend it to others 100%”.

I was encouraged to further my Health and Safety training to support our organisation by our Health and Safety advisor. John Berrisford recommended SVT for the level 5 as he had achieved his certification through them. With the support from John Berrisford and SVT I have now qualified at Level 5 allowing me to take Managing Health and Safety within our organisation to another level confidently.

The structure and way in which SVT deliver this training is thorough and convenient when working in a busy environment, I have no hesitation in recommending them for anyone who wants to pursue a career in Health and Safety.

Mark Davidson Tech IOSH - Stratify Safety Services

I Mark Davidson have recently just completed my NVQ level 5 in Occupational health and safety practice which I carried out with SVT.

Right from the beginning of my course I was given clear instruction and guidance from my tutor on what was expected from me throughout the course. The information and guidance supplied within my course package provided from SVT helped me through the entirety of my course to ensure that I had all the required information needed to ensure I completed all areas within the course.

On occasions where I was uncertain on certain areas my tutor replied to my queries promptly which ensured that I was not held up trying to complete the various units throughout the course. The tutor was also thorough when assessing my individual units and often gave me recommendations on how I could improve individual units, by doing this it allowed my units to be passed first time when being sent to the assessor.

I am very pleased that I chose SVT to carry out my NVQ and would be than willing to carry out future courses with them.

I had enrolled for ‘NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Health & Safety’ with SVT by winter, 2014 and could complete it by October, 2015. I would rate the support I received from SVT as the best in class & I was wondered about this when I heard about many others who offered it worst. Starting from registration until the course certificate delivery, SVT had the best and simple procedures. Studying in SVT will definitely be of an excellent choice. Assessors and portfolio managers are rich in knowledge & experience and their guidance is worth to remember all your lifetime. I would like to strongly recommend SVT for anyone who reads this, to plan your future.
Best wishes,

Having recently completed the NVQ level 5 diploma in health and safety, I can highly recommend SVT as your training company of choice. I was unsure how the whole process would work as this is the first course I have ever undertaken purely online. I can honestly say, I was surprised at how easy the process was. From receiving and downloading the course information to completing and submitting each unit. The service I received and feedback from SVT whilst undertaking my diploma was highly professional, my coordinator (Matt King) was extremely supportive and provided me with the necessary feedback and guidance in a timely and constructive manner. This in my opinion is crucial in helping students complete the NVQ. Overall, I have enjoyed this whole experience and will definitely look to enroll on another Health and Safety Course with SVT in the future and would recommend to anyone else looking to do the same

I have completed two online courses with SVT the NVQ level 4&5 in optional health and safety, I am also in the process of going through the Nebosh fire and safety management qualification with SVT. I have found the on-line courses very easy to access and the level of supporting material I received of a high quality and easily understood.

I also found their support both over the phone and e-mail very good, they are always willing to talk through any problems I may have come across even if it's just to clarify I was on the right track before I spent time writing a lengthy report.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Shields vocational training to my colleges and will continue to do further courses with them.

I was already a Chartered Safety and Health Practitioner (CMIOSH) and during my IPD process I had to complete a mini NVQ type portfolio (SDP) and this made me more interested to gain a well-respected UK based Vocational Qualification and thus decided to contact SVT to enroll for my Level 5 NVQ Diploma in OHS Practice.

I had recently completed my NVQ Level 5 Diploma in OSH Practice. It took me less than 40 days to complete the qualification, Each and every person I was in touch supported me for this, Special thanks to Matt King (Portfolio Coordinator), Simon and Mike (Assessors), Mark Massen (Course Advisor).

I will rate the service and support of SVT as Far beyond Excellence.

After completing some extensive research and checks, I decided to enrol in the NVQ Level 5 Diploma in OHS Practice with SVT. The course took me about 8 months to complete. This was mainly due to heavy work commitments.

The experience with SVT has been great. Matt has a real eye for detail and  ensured that the evidence I provided met the brief. Keeping me on track. The turnaround time with modules being assessed by SVT was very quick. This helped motivate me to get straight on with next module.

Overall, a very professional and diligent team at SVT. I would use them again and strongly recommend others to.

Next stop CMIOSH.

Working as a Health and Safety professional in a busy NHS, I decided to venture down the NVQ route for L5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice. I chose SVT after studying their website and holding an on-line chat with one of their course advisors.

I can honestly say that distance was not a deciding factor and I was impressed with their friendly approach. The course took me approximately 6 months to complete and I was grateful for the support and guidance that I received from Matt King who kept me on track with my supporting documentation/evidence and also to Mike Watson and Simon Vickers who provided a fast turnaround with all my assessment feedback.

I found everyone who I made contact with at SVT to be thoroughly professional, meticulous and downright helpful. They all put you at ease from the start and they are always on hand to give you quick support and advice to any queries that you may have. I will have no hesitation in recommending SVT to anyone who wishes to further their knowledge and skills.

I had an enjoyable learning experience with SVT Ltd from beginning to end. The registration process was informative in a comprehensive way and the emails were friendly.

This made for a welcoming introduction to the course. Submitted units were marked quickly and the feedback was always helpful. My tutor was very approachable and knowledgeable. I found the website and its forums to be a great way to meet other students and get advice.

I began, of which I thought was going to be an arduous task of partaking in further education with SVT. However right from the outset, with a smooth setup and enrolment on the course, through to advising on each module and final completion, this was carried out with the utmost professionalism and efficiency by the SVT team. I would like to personally thank the team for their continued support and valuable feed back.  I very much look forward to starting the next course. Thank you.

Thank you to SVT for making the NVQ process understandable and easier to undertake. I left it quite late to start submitting work, but received lots of support from my assesor who always got back to me promptly with constructive and helpful feedback. The whole process of submission meant I could submit work anytime, day or night, which I found incredibly useful.

I would definately consider SVT for any future training I choose to undertake.

I would like to say a very big “THANK YOU” to each and every one at SVT Ltd who helped me succeed and pass my NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice.

I commenced my course in January, 2015 and received my completion certificate in June, 2015. I would not have completed this course within 6 months if it hadn't been for the quick turn around with my assignments from the SVT team.

I would highly recommend SVT Ltd to any persons looking to further their professional qualifications, they are one of the most professional organisations I have dealt with, who provide support and credible advice when needed.  I would like to thank Matt King for the professional and exquisite support that he offered me throughout my course, and all the help and information that you gave me every step of the way from start to finish, and the quick response to emails and telephone contact.  I would also like to thank Mike Watson for the professional knowledge and understanding when assessing my portfolio.

 SVT Ltd is a highly professional, efficient, no nonsense approach to training, with all staff being very knowledgeable of the industry.  Absolutely flawless service and I would highly recommend.  Keep up the good work and thanks again.

I have now applied for GradIOSH status with IOSH and will apply for my open book assessment to become CMIOSH when I receive GradIOSH.

I’d wanted to boost my knowledge and widen my horizon in my career, and having completed the SVT level 5 diploma in HSE has given me the opportunity to handle my responsibilities more efficiently, confidently and most importantly more professionally.

I had a wonderful time with entire SVT team, from online customer support to the assessing team, and I will like to personally thank Mr. Matt King and Mr. Mike Watson for their support. It was a wonderful experience.

SVT has not just given me the opportunity to handle my responsibilities as an occupational safety and health practitioner more professionally, but also has strengthen my position in local and international employment market and widen my chances of employment.

I will encourage each and every professional in all types of industries willing to improve their professional skills and knowledge to consider SVT for a quality training in a comfort pace.

Jamie Flemming  - Team Leader of Emergency Rescue Services

In 2011 I decided to leave my role with SembCorp Asset Protection in the United Kingdom and try living and working in the Middle East. I had received a job offer with Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore Oil (ADCO) on a new project based in Fujairah, United Arab Emirates (UAE).

I settled into my new role and looked at ways of progressing within the company, it soon become apparent that despite my experiences and the job related training I had received over the course of my career, a lack of credible qualifications was impeding my chances of promotion.

A friend recommended SVT, I contacted them and signed up to complete the NVQ level 5 in Health and Safety. Initially, I had reservations about my ability to achieve the award but with the help of Matt King, my confidence gradually grew and I achieved the award, in turn qualifying for IOSH graduate status.

SVT helped me suddenly find a passion for learning again, following the NVQ level 5 diploma, Leicester University allowed me to start a Master’s Degree in Risk, Crisis and Disaster Management which I completed in 2014, and recently I studied again with SVT, this time completing the ILM level 7 award in Strategic Leadership and Management under the guidance of Cheryl Watson.

In the Middle East finding credible qualification providers is difficult and from my experience SVT’s professional and efficient service sets them apart from their rivals. I believe continuing to educate yourself is critical whatever role you’re undertaking, and the qualifications gained via SVT have impacted on my progression at work and subsequently had a positive effect on my personal life.

I look forward to continuing to learn with SVT in the future.

Having just completed my Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety I would like to thanks Matt King and Mike Watson for their professionalism throughout the course. The course started with a detailed explanation of precisely what was required by Matt. On submission of each unit I received an acknowledgment of receipt by Matt within one or two working days, after guidance from Matt the unit was then forwarded to Mike Watson for verification. I received feedback on the unit from Mike within days. I achieved the Diploma in under 4 months thanks to the swift procedures Mike and Matt have in place. I would recommend SVT to anyone wishing to gain this qualification

I would like to thank to all the team in SVT, particular Mark Avison, who had made it eases the process of registering the course. I especially want to thank to my assessor Jo Towse for supporting and encouraging me throughout the course I couldn’t do it without her. I was very dedicated and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a pleasure to work with such wonderful staff in SVT.

This Level 3 Diploma in Health and Social Care will allow me to not only preserve  and concentrate more on my duty as professional, but to also provide in to my client by delivering the quality care they require.

However the study and skills I acquired at SVT were extremely beneficial, not only for achieving my desired to obtain this knowledge but also putting into practice. I highly recommend The SVT Vocational Training, for anyone who want to take professional training.

Marc Smith  -

The service I received from SVT whilst undertaking my diploma was highly professional, my coordinator (Matt King) was extremely supportive and provided the necessary guidance and direction in a timely and constructive manner; something I believe is crucial to the completion of any NVQ. Matt’s knowledge and understanding of the NVQ process and how best I could meet the evidence requirements of the individual units was a valuable asset in my determination to complete the unit. Matt’s attention to detail in ensuring the units submitted were complete in all aspects also proved invaluable as was the quick turnaround time in having the unit assessed and feedback provided.

As mentioned, SVT are an extremely professional unit and I would have no hesitation in either using their services again or recommending them to others looking to gain the relevant qualifications.

Completed the course in the time period I set myself which was only achievable through the help and cooperation again of Matt and Mike.
This has given me the confidence to pursue my career goals and I will defiantly be back. Once again a big thank you to all at SVT

Howard  -

After having attempted to achieve the NEBOSH Diploma, I embarked upon the NVQ Level 5 route with some trepidation. However, it was immediately obvious that the vocational route suited my lifestyle, and particularly the pace at which I was able to progress through the award.

The team at SVT were courteous, professional, and the process of completing and submitting each module clear and easy to understand. Despite being a health and safety consultant for 9 years, I found that each module tested and at the same time reaffirmed my understanding of the various aspects of ‘health and safety'.

For those looking to achieve a ‘Diploma’ in health and safety, I would whole heartedly recommend SVT and the NVQ Level 5 route. I will certainly be using their services again!

Kind regards,

Howard

I was a little unsure of what to expect when I first enrolled on the 
NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety as this was the first course I had ever undertaken online.

I can honestly say, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the process
was, from receiving and downloading the course information to completing and submitting each unit.

Matt King, my Portfolio Coordinator was great, he was very helpful when it came to any queries I had and responded swiftly with the Assessors feedback upon submission of each unit.

My Assessor Mike Watson, was also very pleasant and helpful and very quick to respond with his feedback to my units.

Overall, I have enjoyed the experience and will definitely look to enrol on another Health and Safety Course with SVT in the future and would recommend to anyone else looking to do the same.

I selected the provider of my level 5 diploma in Occupational Health and Safety initially on price and SVT came in with a very competitive quote.

Initially I was not the most motivated student to get the qualification started and I was having some difficulty applying the units to work that I was completing in my job role, so after a long conversation with Mandy I got my head around what I needed to do and how I could apply the aspects of my work experience to the relevant unit, I was rolling!

I received all the support I needed and the motivation to complete the qualification… roll on CMIOSH!!

I found the course very straightforward. The questions were pre-generated so it was easy to follow. I also found that there is loads of time to complete, although I completed early as I was feeling motivated at the time. There is a good choice of units that may be relevant to peoples own workplace. Support was there when needed. Completion was carried out in a timely manner. No waiting around for IV/EV input as it was done straight away on completion. I thoroughly enjoyed the course

Jamie Fleming -

I have worked within the oil and gas industry for 14 years performing the role of Fire Officer. I began my career with SembCorp Asset Protection in the United Kingdom were the main focus of my position was on providing resilience through emergency response.

After 10 years of working with SembCorp, I decided it was time for a change and moved to the United Arab Emirates with ADCO (Abu Dhabi Company for Onshore oil operations); it was whilst working in the Emirates that I realized I would benefit from gaining a credible Health & Safety qualification. I looked at what was available on the internet at various forums, and the most professional company according to the consensus was SVT.

I called SVT to see if I was eligible to apply for the NVQ 5 in Occupational Health & Safety and to assess if I could achieve the award. After a discussion with SVT staff, I realized I was already completing most of the tasks required to attain the award. The award took me just over a year to complete, it was quite difficult but I was aided by SVT’s Matt King and assessor Mike Watson, both of who clarified any issues I encountered and made the experience worthwhile, and two weeks after passing I have my certificates. I have since changed roles and now work in Iraq with Lukoil overseas, Health and Safety is a major part of my job description and the qualification I gained with SVT has aided me to obtain my new position.

I wish to testify that my experiences in dealing with the team at SVT was made most enjoyable and relaxing. The support that I received from every person I dealt with was way more than what could ever be expected.

Their professional and speedy manner in which all my queries was handled was well appreciated. The speed in which my assignments were assessed and the feedback made the entire experience an absolute pleasure. I did find quite a bit of repetition in my course, but soon realized that it is a necessary part of each section and deals with all the different aspects of those particular assignments.

Having previously used SVT as a personal training provider to support my self development in Occupational Health and Safety Practice, it really came easy to continue with their support in assisting me to further develop my professional development within this field. The support and guidance from SVT staff on a personal level was professional and friendly, with a very impressive response time to queries and submissions. A level of service which I have come to expect over the years, and one that I will no doubt make use of again in the near future and would not hesitate in recommending SVT to those individuals or organisations who are seeking professional learning & development support.

Scott Andrews - MIIRSM, Dip RSA, ACQI - HSE and Facilities Manager, Teledyne Oil & Gas Europe

This was a first for me; first time with SVT and first time doing an NVQ. SVT provided document packs and information that were concise and structured. The support and feedback provided was also informative, helpful and knowledgeable. Feedback allowed me target areas that needed additional consideration and enhancement with upcoming units and modules.

Prior to committing to SVT as my course provider. I researched the OHS Level 5 NVQ and contacted several training providers including SVT. However, SVT demonstrated that they could, would and can provide both the correct and necessary support, service and confidence I wanted. I have enjoyed my personal journey of the NVQ Level 5 in order to validate my own experiences and further develop and enhance my skills and knowledge. I am also happy that I chose to share this journey with SVT.

My personal work ethics are “if you are going to do it, do it properly” the SVT support team have allowed me to continue that ethic based upon their professionalism and structured support. Well done and thank you.

It was such a wonderful experience to have such a wonderful assessor like Joe Pope and her Assistant Neeta. I enjoyed the course so much that at one point I was delaying to hand in my last module as I didn’t not want to let go. The level of support and professionalism from Joe and Neeta was excellent. Each time I needed help I received it straight away. One time I thought I had made a mistake by choosing this diploma as I had no clue what was going on. Neeta organised a professional discussion with Joe and she put me on the right track and from then on none of my modules were returned back to me. Joe’s explanation was very easy to understand and right to the point. In my experience as a student, I have never experienced so much positive input from tutors. Thank you Joe and Neeta, I would not have made it without your support and keep up the good work!. I enjoyed the Diploma so much, wish I can do it again!

I registered for the NVQ Level 5 in Occupational Health & Safety back in December 2010 but did not actually get around to starting it until mid-2011 and finished it December 2012.

Although this might seem like a long time it fitted into my work and family commitments and it was very easy to pick it up again after a break from it.

I would highly recommend the workshop that SVT offer as this was the 'kick start' I needed to actually start working through the Units.

The support from all the staff at SVT I dealt with was first class and a great help when requiring some direction with the various units

I could not recommend this course enough to anyone working in a Health and Safety environment as you will be able to produce the majority of the evidence you require to complete this course form your day job. You will also gain a well-recognised Health and Safety qualification without having to sit in a classroom for a number of weeks.

I would definitely use SVT again in the future and again a big thank you to all SVT staff for all their assistance.

Stan Rudowski - Regional Health, Safety & Environmental Manager, ATS Euromaster

Two years ago I researched the possibility of attaining the qualification in a manner that suited not only my day job but also my personal life.

I contacted a number of providers for details of what was on offer both price wise and content.

SVT Ltd certainly ticked all the boxes; however I was in Edinburgh and they were in Grimsby and I thought that there may be issues if I needed help or support and a local provider may be more suitable.

One phone call from SVT convinced me that they were the right provider and I signed up that day.

The material came through I worked at my own pace, received excellent encouragement and guidance, any adjustments to my work was backed up with advice and constructive feedback.

SVT kept me on track and motivated and although it seemed like a long road they helped to keep me focussed to complete each module

I now have the qualification I wanted, I have gained promotion, so both sets of goals have been met and a big thank you goes to all the people at SVT Ltd who helped me attain my goals

I would certainly use SVT again and would not hesitate to recommend them to other potential customers.

I found registering to complete my NVQ5 Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety with SVT Ltd easy, communication between me and the assessor was good but answers to any queries was within hours not days.

The course layout was easy to understand, challenging in that evidence to support your reflective accounts were rigorously checked and of course witnessed by your superiors.

In all yes I'm so pleased I gave this course my full commitment and fully endorse this qualification to those who want to attain CMIOSH or even improve their professional status within the field of Health & Safety.

After deciding to enhance my career as a safety professional I contacted SVT Ltd of Grimsby to enrol on a NVQ level 5 diploma course in occupational health and safety. I had previously done business with SVT and due to the first class response I received I decided once again to contact them. I found the staff to be very helpful not only when booking, but also while completing the course the level of support that I received was again first class.

The content of the course was very well structured and easy to understand. I found my dedicated tutor to be excellent in her response to queries and giving feedback. I would recommend anyone wishing to enrol on the above course to contact SVT as I am sure they will receive the same excellent service that I received

Luke Pitt - Health & Safety Advisor & Director - LARP Safety Limited

My career since the NVQ has really gone from strength to strength as it has opened a lot of doors for me which were firmly shut until I had gained this type of qualification and in hindsight this is rightfully so.

I have found that like most things, you also need to gain a reputation as well as having the qualifications, and that is one of the hardest things to obtain, yes you may have the NVQ, but then it's a matter of networking and selling yourself out there in a very harsh environment and believing that what you have and the work you put into obtaining it is enough to be credible within the industry.

After about a year of gaining my NVQ 4 , I then looked to undertake the Charter process by applying to take the IOSH open book exam (which if you take the NVQ4 is the route you have to take). This is actually a lot harder than most people think as IOSH know you have access to the information and as such have an expectation that your answers should be better than if you were trying to remember all the details in an exam room. I took it and passed and then went forward then to my peer group interview. This was in August of this year and as you can see was successful. I was awarded Chartered status on the 11th August 2011 and I am immensely proud of getting as far as I have and grateful for your companies assistance in guiding me through that very important first stage.

It is really important to know that whichever way you start in H&S, the end result of being Chartered is the best way of showing either your company or client base that you are at the very top of your professional tree.

Luke Pitt Health & Safety Advisor & Director - LARP Safety Limited
Eddie Walters -

Pretty standard as far as the IOSH process is concerned. I achieved the NVQ 4 with SVT as I was in the transition from Grad IOSH. I managed to apply for the chartered interview with only days to spare, but made it thanks to your prompt turn around and feedback. I was confident enough to send the application through after having received verbal feedback from your team.

After achieving Chartered certification I was asked for some general discussions with IOSH about several other areas of interest through my work. This eventually led to a chat about being a member of the IOSH Chartered Interval panel.

I have sat on several panels since 2010 and hope to progress to chairman of the panel in the near future.

After gaining my NVQ I was able to upgrade to Grad IOSH this I obtained within a short time.

The upgrade to CMIOSH itself took approximately 2 years to achieve, I first had to pass an open assessment which consisted of a number of questions covering a wide range of subjects. the answers being limited in words and a time limit of 10 days.

This I passed at first attempt. I then had to attend a peer interview which consisted of a short presentation by me, about me and my career so far and what I hope to do in the future, followed by a question and answer session.

The peer review I passed on the second attempt and it was put forward for ratification by the IOSH board in October of this year.I received confirmation of this a short time later.

The benefits are that it has raised my professional profile and that of the organisation I work for, and validates the work ethic, including that of IOSH. It has raised my personal and profession profile with my colleagues who trust in my ability and seek out knowledge and guidance.

As for the future I hope it will take me on to a more responsible position within the profession I am dedicated to.

Andrew Clark - Health & Safety Advisor, Pocklington School

I started the course what seems like a very long time ago in fact it has been almost two years since I took my first tentative steps towards completing the NVQ. I had promised myself that after attending the NVQ workshop held in Grimsby that I would have it all completed within 9 months. Work commitments and family life overtook me however and so I ended up using almost the entire allocated amount of time for completion.

I would strongly recommend that anyone considering the NVQ route uses the opportunity of the workshop, as in my case never having carried out an NVQ prior to this; I found it to be extremely useful in letting me know what was expected to complete the modules..

During the whole process I received positive feedback on all the evidence submitted and the occasional pointer as to where the work could be improved upon. From a personal point of view this worked extremely well and I would thoroughly recommend the NVQ path to anyone wishing to gain a Diploma level health & safety qualification. A big thank you to all the team at SVT, who helped me along the way.

Two years ago I researched the possibility of attaining the qualification in a manner that suited not only my day job but also my personal life.

I contacted a number of providers for details of what was on offer both price wise and content.

SVT Ltd certainly ticked all the boxes; however I was in Edinburgh and you where in Grimsby and I thought that there may be issues if I needed help or support and a local provider may be more suitable.

One phone call from SVT convinced me that you were the right provider and I signed up that day.

The material came through I worked at my own pace, received excellent encouragement and guidance, any adjustments to my work was backed up with advice and constructive feedback.
You kept me on track and motivated and although it seemed like a long road you helped to keep me focussed to complete each module

I now have the qualification I wanted, I have gained promotion, so both sets of goals have been met and a big thank you goes to all the people at SVT who helped me attain my goals

I would certainly use SVT again and would not hesitate to recommend you to other potential customers.

Andrew Clarke - Safety Trainer for Training at Naver

I started a level 4 NVQ in Occupational Safety and Health with SVT Ltd in order to give myself better credibility as a trainer. When embarking on a career in any Health and Safety orientated post, qualifications are a necessity.

During my time working on the level 4 NVQ in Occupational Health and Safety, I found the people at SVT to be very helpful. As time went by, my job changed with my partner leaving for another job and leaving me with a heavy workload, but due to the inherent flexibility of an NVQ I was able to put it on hold until it suited me to start work on it again. Whenever I had any queries or uncertainties about the evidence required, I just phoned up and had a chat with the SVT team and clarified the situation. I am now the proud owner of a level 4 NVQ and I know I wouldn't have managed without the support of the SVT team.

I would like to convey my gratitude to you and your team on the completion of my NVQ 5. The quality of service I received from yourself and Matt King was exceptional and contributed greatly in easing my journey through this process.

I want to further thank you for your professionalism and technical ability to guide me through the NVQ 5 qualification. Your knowledge of all things appertaining to Health and Safety was invaluable to me. You gave your advice freely and you were very patient with me when I struggled to understand a concept.

I found all of the team based in Grimsby approachable and helpful. I never felt alone on this journey because the SVT Customer Service and Support were excellent.

I would like to end this Testimonial by saying that I would unreservedly recommend SVT as an NVQ 5 Course Provider for Health and Safety and would be please to share my experiences with any potential client should you like me to do so.

I have just completed the NVQ4 in Occupational Health & Safety Practice with SVT Ltd. I was apprehensive at the beginning and delayed starting for 3 months. When I submitted my first unit the response from Matt King was almost immediate. He thanked me for my evidence and informed me of my assessor. My assessor welcomed me and encouraged me to submit a high quality of evidence. After successfully completing 6 units, we moved house and my Mother passed away, this stopped me working on my NVQ for 8 months, but with encouragement from my husband and the SVT team I resumed my studies.

I found the units very varied, albeit if you work through them in order they do follow a logical pattern and allow for cross referencing. As expected some of the units are more challenging than others, but this makes you research those areas and expand your knowledge. I have learnt a lot and become more confident in my role as a Health and Safety Advisor. I would recommend SVT to anyone wishing to develop their career in health and safety.

Great support throughout the process of achieving my NVQ 5. Always willing to go an extra mile to help and steer in the right direction. I will be doing some more training with SVT as I see them as a very reliable service provider.

Terry Game -

From my first telephone contact with SVT Ltd to the completion of my NVQ, the friendly and helpful response has been a breath of fresh air.

I attended the workshop day very early into starting my NVQ, and the advice given has been the corner stone to all my completed work. All contact with my assessor as been to the point and continually kept me in the right direction. So completing my NVQ was not difficult but not easy, just well balanced and matched the health and safety work I am involved with on a daily basis.

Many thanks to all the SVT team and I would happily continue to promote their services.

Paul Baumber -

I started the NVQ Level 5 Diploma In 'Occupational Safety and Health Practice' around Feb 2011 and have just completed the 10 units this month, Feb 2012, so the course has taken me exactly one year to complete. I had previously undertaken 2 x NVQ Level 4's in 'Learning and Development' and 'Co-ordination of Learning and Development Provision', so had some previous experience of the NVQ systems of assessment.

However, the previous NVQs that I had completed were paper-based portfolios rather than electronically based (stored) as 'SVT' utilised for the NVQ Level 5 Diploma. At first I found this a little strange but soon realised it was a much better system and the need for paper was unnecessary and, indeed, environmentally unfriendly.

I did find the units a little difficult to understand regarding the format in the very beginning but after I got through the first unit with the excellent assistance of Phil Campbell, Matt King and their colleagues at SVT, it slowly became second nature to me. By the time that I had got into more of the units I was sold that the format that SVT was using was a very good system for NVQ assessment.

In truth I think that the NVQ itself was much more demanding than I had expected. I had previously just completed a BA Degree and I think the level of work and study that was needed for the NVQ Level 5 Diploma was on a par with the Degree. Anyone who thinks that this NVQ is an easy route to getting a Degree level qualification is greatly mistaken. Although the work and effort is of a different nature to the Degree, it still can get stressful. Having said that there is also the same feeling of elation when I completed a unit successfully which matched the feeling of completing an essay successfully on my Degree.

At all times through the course I found the team at SVT Ltd to be very helpful and I would like to thank them for that. I would also like to give a special mention to Phil Campbell who is very knowledgeable and was always willing to assist, and his affable and friendly personality made him very approachable. I am looking to do other courses with SVT in the future, including NVQ courses, and so would definitely recommend and use SVT again.

I found the course was very well laid out and I was supplied with lots of information about the structure of the diploma and requirements for each module. To begin with I found it exceedingly daunting and though I enrolled in January 2011, I only had the confidence to start working on my modules in the beginning of May 2011. For me this was due to a Skype session with Phil and though we only spoke for an hour, it cleared up any confusion I had and things just clicked for me from that point. I would recommend a Skype session or something similar within a month of a candidate enrolling as it is a daunting aspect and is a good opportunity to clear up any issues.

From that point onwards I worked towards a module, then discussed the next one I planned to do with Phil or he would recommend one if I unsure of which one to tackle next. Occasionally I was unsure of how much evidence is required and this becomes easier once a few modules have been submitted as you know what standard is expected. I worked on the diploma on the same level as I did for a post graduate MSc.

I really appreciated having Phil to either phone or email, if I was unsure over anything and he was excellent at reassuring me and keeping my humour!

I would certainly use SVT Ltd again for a course as it has been a straight forward process from researching a course; enrolling and good support from the course information and by having a tutor. I have recommended SVT for distance learning courses to friends and colleagues.

Brian Kerr - Production & Systems Day Engineer

After completing my NEBOSH certificate I sought guidance from our Company's Regional SHE Business Partner on what should be the next course that I undertook either the NEBOSH Diploma or the NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice. The guidance was to complete the NVQ level 5 at SVT.

I enrolled for the course on the 26th August 2011 and on the 27th February 2012 my pass certificate was issued. The course completed from start to finish in six months.

At the start an Assessor was assigned and each time evidence submitted guidance or sign off was received within the promised five days. The course encouraged the introduction of new procedures and tools into the workplace which will continue to be used now that the course has been completed. The guidance issued by the Assessor was always constructive and clear identifying the requirements for the units.

Email support was available during my course and this ensured that any queries guidance were always readily available.

I would recommend this course as it allows the individual to use their daily work as evidence towards the qualification.

If you are doing your daily work to a high standard then you should claim the qualification to reflect this fact. This course allows you to do that.

Jonathan Young - Regional Health and Safety Advisor

I was looking to complete a further qualification within Health and Safety and with not being the best with exams an NVQ seemed the perfect route. It meant I could complete my studies alongside working, I visited a number of provider's websites but SVT Ltd stood out the most.

On initial contact and after a brief discussion I felt due to the position I was in that some aspects may have been difficult to complete, however further discussions with the team at SVT helped to quash any fears.

I would like to convey my thanks to you and your team on the completion of my NVQ 5. The quality of service received was fantastic along with the support provided.

I would like to say that I would have no problem or issues in recommending SVT Ltd as an NVQ 5 Course Provider for Health and Safety.

Michael Morrisroe - Regional Health and Safety Advisor

I found the professionalism and understanding of SVT whilst completing my NVQ 4 to be second to none.

Whilst a lot of distance learning can be fraught with difficulty through misunderstanding of the required standards and tight deadlines, I found SVT and especially my assessor/mentor to helpful and constructive.

I would have no hesitation in recommending anyone to SVT Ltd.

Andrew Tetlow - Cape Health and Safety site co-ordinator

I would like to give my gratitude to Sarah and Matt on the completion of my NVQ5. Their support and guidance made the whole experience very, very painless. Feedback was given in a very prompt manner and helped me keep in the flow of steady progress.

I am based at a nuclear power station and found that all the units were very relevant to my day to day work here. There were some units where I would have toiled to complete without the dedication of the SVT team.

Again, many thanks and I have and would recommend SVT to my colleagues and peers.

Andrew Price - Lighthouse Safety Training Ltd

Throughout my H&S NVQ Level 4 journey, I found SVT to be extremely professional and efficient. Their course material explained in a clear manner exactly what was required, and where I failed to interpret this in an acceptable manner, Phil Campell (my assessor) was patient and steered me in the right direction.

This is the third level 4 NVQ I have now completed; when comparing the experience I found the SVT format and approach by far the simplest. I do know from talking to others who have completed or are still trying to complete their NVQ with other training organisations, that there is too much personal agenda requests for added evidence from many assessors. SVT and Phil kept their requirements straight forward and only asked for material which met the Evidence Criteria requirements, with no personal agenda encountered, please accept a BIG thanks for this.

I have already recommended 4 persons (two of my own staff, my brother and a friend) to SVT and will continue to do so. Well Done, Phil, many thanks and keep up the good work.

Paul Lloyd -

Starting on the long and sometimes painful road of qualifications can be a scary thought, however from day one with SVT I felt comfortable. From the start the helpfulness of the admin team was excellent, it was a simple process and within days I was able to start getting evidence for my portfolio.

As with most people I suffered several stumbling blocks and in the early stages felt I had to solve these myself, which was time consuming and demoralising.

Once I realised that the easiest form of support was your very own assessor, it all became a lot easier. I never once had to wait more than a couple of hours to have a phone call returned. Most of the time I had the answer in my head but Phil just helped to extract it !.

I would definitely use SVT again for any further qualifications and have also recommended them to colleagues.

Sarah Wild -

I have recently completed my OCR NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with SVT Ltd and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them as a top class training provider.

As a full time working single parent finding the time to study was always going to be difficult for me but the easy to use course guide and documents, coupled with an excellent support system at the end of a phone was the perfect arrangement for me to do all the work I needed to.

My assessor was a brilliant source of inspiration for me and I was able to finish the course in 18 months, which I was pleased with. Having learned plenty and thoroughly enjoying my studies I can honestly say it was a pleasure to work with SVT and I would definitely use them again.

Thanks to all at SVT!

I would like to say a big thanks to all the team at SVT Ltd in helping me achieve the OCR NVQ Level 5 in Occupational Health and Safety. It’s only taken me just over a year and throughout this time the support and advice from SVT has been excellent. The team were only one click away and could always point me in the right direction with my qualification.

Mr. Amandip Sandhu - Wyman Gordon Limited

I successfully completed the OCR Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety with SVT and would highly recommend this course.

The practical concepts and tools taught in the course are easy to remember and apply. The course and the delivery is suitably designed to assist students in developing a better understanding of their health and safety responsibilities, as well as giving the skills and knowledge needed to manage health and safety on site, in compliance with legislation.

The knowledge, information, and enthusiasm I shared with my colleagues really had an impact on our management, employees and the health and safety working environment. There are improvements with documents, policies and procedures as well as improvements in risk assessments, inspections, audits and incident reductions.

I want to use this opportunity to thank SVT for enabling me to enjoy and achieve this award. I especially want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Matt for his willingness to help out wherever there is a need. This is greatly appreciated. I also want to thank Mike Watson for all his feedback which kept me on the right track throughout the eight months of this enjoyable course. I will always recommend SVT in the future.

I have recently completed my OCR NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice with SVT and wouldn't hesitate in recommending them as a top class training provider.

The course allows you plenty of time so it allows you to fit in all your work and family commitments.

At the start an Assessor was assigned and each time evidence was submitted guidance or sign off was received within a few days.

While completing the various units I found the assessors were always available to give me advice and guidance when required, this enabled me to complete the units in good time.

Overall I would recommend SVT to anyone wishing to gain a diploma in Occupational Health and Safety, or any of the other courses they run.

Again I would like to thank all those at SVT for their assistance over the last 2 years.

I have now completed my NVQ s Level 3 and 5 with SVT and found them very helpful from sorting out a payment plan to getting back to me promptly on questions I needed help with. I would not hesitate to recommend SVT to anyone wanting to further their career and if, in the future if I am wanting to do anymore courses they would be my first port of call

Matthew J Beckett - DipRSAA TechIOSH

Having spent some years as a Safety rep I decided to change my career path, and take on a full time Safety role. After gaining the NEBOSH General Cert, (obtained via intensive classroom lead training) I landed a full time EHS Advisors role, and found myself wanting to develop my breadth of experience as well as simultaneously continue to gain recognised qualifications so opted to take the NVQ5 DipRSAA pathway.

Through navigating the course content and meeting the requirements of each module I have managed to add value and strategic advantage to the organisation, gain professsionally recognised qualifications all whilst developing my career, the distance learning and 100% coursework aspect was brilliant and allowed for great flexibility in submissions so much that I was able to manage changing nappies and completing assignments after the arrival of my son.

I found the SVT team to be very friendly and submissions were reviewed in a short space of time with meaningful feedback that enabled me to learn and adapt for subsequent assignments. I would definitely consider using Shields again and wouldn�t hesitate in recommending them to colleagues in the future.

The team at SVT could not be more helpful. The open day at the start of the course enabled me to grasp what the qualification entailed and confirm that I was heading in the right direction.

The support and feedback was excellent. You could not wish to meet a more helpful team.

The NVQ 5 in Occupational Health & Safety has developed me as a person taking me to the next level. Looking forward to the next challenge!
