Really friendly, easy to use program
We used this system to train people who use our day center. They sat the exam and those that passed received their certificates which they loved. We then published this on peoples CVs to help them find work.
It’s a really friendly, easy to use program which I would recommend.
James Marsh
Interesting & Helpful
When starting my own cleaning business I felt I could benefit from a course that would not only help me, but provide certification to show I was competent.
I didn’t have time to attend workshops so an easy access online course was the only way to go. I found the components not only interesting but helpful and fully benefited from the tests in aid to remembering.
I would fully recommend the course to anyone seriously intending to run a cleaning business.

Recommended to those who want to pursue a career in cleaning
This is a course recommended to those who want to pursue a career in cleaning.
It is very helpful for people who have never been in the cleaning industry. It gives insight on what to expect, what things to gain, and what things to look out for. It also discusses the different “branches” if you ever want to specialize in a specific cleaning business.
At first, I thought just using the hoover and cleaning toilets, but it is in fact a very practical course that covers many different topics. It is ideal for people looking to venture into a home-based business, as it covers everything from conception to running the business.
