What others are saying

“It’s highly encouraging to see the main objectives of the programme have been successfully achieved and embraced by the entire team. We are excited to see how their newly developed skills continue to drive positive outcomes across the organisation.”

Phil Glover

Manufacturing Manager – Intersurgical

Lean Manufacturing Apprenticeship

“I definitely would recommend it to others and I enjoyed all aspects of the course.”

Oliver Taylor

Colchester Institute

Teaching Assistant Course

“So many moments where I have felt my work at Cidori really makes a difference to someone – when people are genuinely thanking me and are so grateful and happy for the opportunity, support or time that I have been able to give them.“

Corinne Edwards

Employment Operations Manager

“I’m so glad I took the leap. I would definitely recommend the course to anyone considering a TA role – right now, I’m working as a supply TA, supporting a young boy with cerebral palsy until the summer break. It’s incredibly rewarding, and I’m really starting to settle into the role. It feels good to be doing something meaningful and to see the difference I can make each day.”

Harry Daly

Teaching Assistant 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.”
