Testimonials ✩✩✩✩✩

  • I booked my level 2,3, and 18th edition for electrical installations with optima. Great training center and really good teachers with full knowledge of the course. Worth to mention Imran, George and Eric all I can say is I am lucky I had them as teachers during the course

    Ioannis Tzagkarakis

  • Great people to deal with, my tutor George was very professional and approachable. Vast knowledge of the electrical industry, and very helpful.

    Andy Fox

  • Enjoyed the support from the tutor and the administration. Have already referred someone who wants to do 18th edition to the college.

    Simon Tavengwa

  • Working long hours, I found this course easy. Available, adaptable, affordable, and effortless. It's just what you need as a working individual who continues to upgrade and update their skills. The test centre was comfortable and provided an easy yet professional environment to work in. Overall, I would recommend this company, as I found the experience, as an older learner upgrading, to be affordable, accessible, and adaptable.

    Ilker Salih

  • Despite the theory being on-line, our instructor Paul was engaging and answered all our questions, and made it real with examples. The practical sessions were run by Peter in London, and again he was brilliant and gave some great advice. I have no hesitation in recommending Optima, and would like to thank all their team for helping me gain my EV and Test/Inspect qualifications.

    Ray Fletcher

  • Thankyou for all your support, passed my 18th edition exam first time.
