”“Not having any knowledge of ductwork before the course, Richard made it simple and interesting to learn about it. Breaking the day up with theory and practical made it easy to retain the information and was very supportive and constructive with any areas we didn’t fully understand. Really confident to go into the new area of working with ductwork”
