My experience with Microcom has been excellent from the first time I walked into their office for my interview. Frankie was really helpful in helping me narrow down what kind of environment I would enjoy working in and supported me all through each of my interviews by sending me helpful links and websites that would help me improve my interview skills and tips on how to prepare for my interview. I was buzzing when I got offered my job in a local solicitor’s office but after a few months I unfortunately lost my job through redundancy.

As soon as I contacted Frankie and Loraine to let them know they were sending my CV back out and getting me back into their office to get some more details. After a few weeks of being unemployed I landed my second job at a recruitment company who were more than happy to let me finish my apprenticeship within their office.

My assessor was also a huge help throughout this process as she was always only a text/phone call away when I needed her – whether I was stuck at a task, wanted to ask a stupid question or if I was running extremely late for my first day in the office due to a bad wind causing the trains to be cancelled! She was amazing at explaining all my tasks to me each week and provided the support to help me complete my apprenticeship, SCQF level 6 in Business and Administration

Can’t thank the Microcom Training team enough for everything they have done for me!

I highly recommend Microcom to any young person like myself who had just left full-time education looking for an apprenticeship. Both Loraine and Frankie worked very closely with me ensuring I got the best possible chance at getting myself not only an apprenticeship, but one that I would enjoy. They had put me at ease right from the get go, answering any questions I had and always kept the communication open. When I met with Loraine and Francis it was a laid-back, comfortable atmosphere, both went into depth about what an apprenticeship entailed and helped me figure out which sort of job role I was looking for. Both Loraine and Frankie kept in contact throughout the job hunt process, involving me in any updates and putting me forward for any apprenticeships that I’d be suitable for. Both Loraine and Frankie worked above and beyond to help me and for that I am grateful, I don’t think finding myself an apprenticeship would have been this easy without them. Thank you again for all your help!

From the minute I arrived until I left , the staff was were brilliant and very helpful , I would like to thank Frankie Gallacher for interviewing me ,he made me feel at ease which allowed me to have a successful interview . In addition I would like to Lorraine Glendinning for supporting me through the interview process not only with Microcom Training but as well as my interview with Partick Housing. Microcom Training provides an excellent service in aiding individuals to look for apprenticeships, this was conveyed in my experience as thanks to them I now have a 2 year Apprenticeship with Partick Housing Association.

I have just completed my Modern Apprenticeship in delivering financial services, Mairi my trainer was fantastic, very helpful throughout and always on hand to answer my many emails. She made me feel totally at ease and assessment visits were very relaxed. I completed the course whilst working full time and it fitted in very well with my workload. Very happy and hoping to do more courses with Microcom. Thanks for everything Mairi!

I really enjoyed my Modern Apprenticeship and it helped me greatly in my existing role at HSBC. I was able to put a lot of the stuff I learned into practice. The main benefit I had from the course was that I was then able to apply for further education by applying for a certificate in Retail Banking Conduct of Business. This certificate will enable me to develop my existing first direct role further and give me even more tools to better my career.

I have just completed my Modern Apprenticeship in Financial Services while working at First Direct. I found the process really simple and clear. If I had any questions about any of the tasks Nicola would be more than happy to help me. I feel much more confident now I have this qualification as I feel I now have a better understanding of the Financial Industry. I feel it has changed my view on a lot of different aspects i.e. business & financial platforms. I would really encourage everyone to do this as it is so simple to do and really interesting and this is a qualification I have now going forward.

I recently completed my Digital Marketing Diploma with Paul. I couldn’t have been any happier with how things went. Paul was extremely helpful no matter how many silly or important questions I asked! A lot of hard work and time went into successfully completing my diploma but I enjoyed all of it and even completed it ahead of schedule thanks to Paul! Would really recommended Microcom as a training provider. Thanks to my diploma I can now successfully continue down my chosen career path!

A few months ago, I enrolled onto a Diploma in Digital Marketing with Microcom Training. While doing this qualification I have developed my Social Media Skills in a very short time. I now better understand the rules and regulations that are in place when I am posting on social media, and this ensures we are not misleading our customers. I am also more aware of how to put effective posts onto Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin etc. that get more views and likes and this helps us to get more business and helps the company to grow. By the time I have finished my qualification I hope to be able to use my new skills and knowledge to lead strong advertising campaigns
