What others are saying

“Our experience of working with construction skills candidates from the team at Cidori is amazing! They register a higher calibre of candidate, more motivated and better prepared for the construction workplace. For our team it is a genuine pleasure to work with Cidori and we look forward to supporting many more of their candidates as part of our continued collaboration.”

Rebecca Rickwood

“Very good course. Great communication and excellent support. Appreciated the experience.” (Google Review 5 Stars: May 2026)

Molly Frost

Teaching Assistant Course

Colchester Institute

“Having spent many years across organisations of all sizes, Cidori stands apart. The belief and trust placed in me to drive change and embrace new challenges, whilst at the same time accommodating my work/life balance, has made it a place where I can truly thrive.”

David Murfitt

Head of Corporate Services

“Course was entertaining and knowledgeable but most importantly after finishing I’ve secured a job in a short while.”

Denis Bogonos

Construction Skills Course – Barnet Southgate College

“I have had the pleasure of working in partnership with Cidori for over 7 years, and in that time, they have proven to be an invaluable part of our social value delivery. Their funded CSCS programme has opened doors for so many people who were previously unemployed, giving them essential qualifications and confidence needed to take that first step into the construction industry.“

Denise Southard

Social Value Manager – Glencar

“What we do at Cidori works – yes we’re a business and there’s a financial angle to our existence of course, but seeing lives both externally & internally change for the better is hugely satisfying – I will be forever grateful for the opportunity and personal growth that has come from working within Cidori and the wider ESHL Group.”
