Pitman Training Stratford Reviews

Super friendly and put me at ease to take my exam. I'd use them again.
I had an amazing experience at **Pitman**, especially in **Room No. 4**, which provided the perfect environment for my ISTQB exam. The place is easy to find, very quiet and comfortable, allowing me to focus fully on my exam.

A special thanks to **Mr. Alan** 🌸 for his kindness and excellent treatment. Thanks to the great atmosphere they provided, I truly believe they played a big role in my success.

I **highly recommend** Pitman to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped place to exam in. You won’t regret it!
Just completed a Google’s CDL exam at this centre. The exam officer was very helpful and welcoming. He checked my IDs and under my sleeves to see that I wasn’t hiding anything, standard protocols.

It would have been challenging to take the exam at home cos an exam proctor had to check every corner of the room, so I’m very happy to have chosen this exam centre.

The place was easy to get to. The centre was on the 1st floor.

I left water behind, thinking I was’t allowed to take a bottle with me, but they provided water and even a box of tissue that I could take in with me.

When I sat in front of a screen, I saw a pair of ear plugs! I would have used it if it was noisy as people might type whilst taking other types of exams, but fortunately I didn’t have to use it as it was really quiet.

A great place to take an exam. I highly recommend it.
Very friendly staff helping us sort out all pre-exam stuff and positive energy! Would
Highly recommend
At first, I was hesitant to enrol with Pitman, but having completed the Office Skills Diploma, I highly recommend it! The experience has enriched my skill range and empowered professional delivery. It has opened more work opportunities and taught me effective business communication. I have been able to apply the skills to real-life scenarios in both professional and personal exchanges.
The staff at the Stratford Centre are super friendly and always assist. There are also opportunities to talk with other working professionals, which has been a great resource for growth. Thank you, Pitman!
Training centre is accessible by tube or bus. Very flexible studying which is great if you are already working and looking to improve and expand your current skill set. Great selection of courses and very friendly staff. Huge thank you goes to Ishaq who is always very helpful and kind.
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the two ladies who ran my AAT exam this morning. It was well organised and calm. Something I haven't experienced with AAT before at my college. They were warm, welcoming and treated me, and the other students, like adults which is also new to me as my college treat us like children. I highly recommend 🌟.
