Very good reputation. Fair assessments and don't use trainers/assessors who have ego's to inflate by giving you a hard time. I have known plenty of people who have used them and none had a bad word to say. Highly recommended

I know and have worked with most of the folks from Apex. Top quality training! You should learn loads from them. Hope you enjoy your training course. (BTW I don't work for Apex, just my personal view of their experience and skills as training providers)
