Brilliant courses
I have just completed my fourth course at the Academy and am already working out which one to do next. Each course has been brilliant and taught by such enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructors. It is great to learn new skills as well as reassuring to know that I am doing some things right in my decorating business. I cannot recommend the Academy highly enough.

kitchen spraying course
I completed the kitchen spraying course with James and I couldn’t have asked for more. Not only did I learn a new skill that I can implement into my business, but I benefitted from a wealth of knowledge from an industry leader who isn’t just someone reading from a text book, but someone who has a a huge amount of experience in the field. I really enjoyed my course and i would highly recommend the academy to anyone who’s interested in growing their skills and capabilities

Excellent joinery finishing course
I did the stage 3 Joinery Finishing course. Another great course with James Wildish, well structured, mainly practical but with plenty of opportunities for questions. Lots of information to absorb.

Great courses & teachers !
Have attended four courses there now. They’ve been great and have taught me so many valuable skills. James and Matt are great teachers and communicate everything you need to know in a way that’s easy to understand and absorb. Every time I attend a course, I find myself leaving with exactly the knowledge I knew I was missing. Highly recommended.
