You will have weekly contact from your Tutor. How we compare with our competitors? Don't just take our word for it, here is what our staff think Bridget I did my course years ago. It was classroom based one night per week. I think I would prefer to be more ‘hands on’ like it is now. Cavity really are a great company to work for. I truly believe that there expertise will ensure the next generation are amazing! Gina I did mine over an apprenticeship but the company my employer used wasn’t great and I didn’t get much support. Although I passed I can only imagine the length that Cavity have gone to to ensure that the students feel supported. As an employee, its super! Enquire Today

Are challenging people getting in the way of your happiness, well-being and success? You may find them at work, in social situations, you may live them or they may be members of your family? Even worse when you see them getting away with things; getting their way even though there is no sense to it; getting advantages over everyone else; and in many cases being rewarded for their abusive behaviour with promotion and other advantages! You probably would never want to behave the way they do. You don’t have it in you or you just couldn’t live with yourself if you behaved like that. Maybe your attempts to confront them have failed and you’ve ended up with egg on your face, with them having more opportunity to have a “dig” at you. As a result, you may have come to the conclusion that it’s the nasty people that get ahead, and someone like you just has to put up with this behaviour from others.
