What others are saying
“Working with the Restart Scheme, we have sent quite a few referrals to Cidori; and our participants who follow through and complete the course give very positive feedback about content and delivery, so we’re really keen to continue to refer people for the course.”
Andrew Russell
NCS Careers Advisor – People Plus
“I enjoyed learning practical leadership tools that I could apply in my role. This made the learning experience both enjoyable and impactful, giving me greater confidence and clarity in how I lead. I’m now making more objective choices, and placing greater emphasis on operating within our organisation’s values, making sure my actions, communication, and leadership style reflect the standards and expectations our company promotes.”

“Why did I choose work at Cidori? The Cidori ethos – the quiet and fantastic work they do to support employers, delivery partners and the people looking for opportunities.“
Kate O’Callaghan
Commercial Director
“My Learning Portal has so many advantages: Snapshot of group progress, learner sees all their work in one place & progress via own dashboard, workbooks links sent to group in one click and standardised workbooks & improvement suggestions easily facilitated. It means the tutor has immediate access to learner work and the efficiencies give tutor time to focus on learner support & formative/summative assessment, rather than administration. Many learners remark on improvement in their own IT skills. MLP has transformed our delivery and the learner experience, taking it to the next level!”
Mark Garrett
Tutor – Barnet Southgate College
“I liked learning about various types of tools, materials, lifting apparatus, and safe practices when working on construction sites. I would recommend this course to others since it provides valuable information that has enabled me to develop my understanding of the subject areas of construction health and safety, manual handling, and safe working practices.”

“Working with Nicola at Cidori has been a real pleasure. She consistently refers us well-prepared candidates who have completed their Level 2 TA course and are eager to begin their careers. Nicola is always quick to respond to any queries and shows genuine care and support for the candidates she works with. Her professionalism and commitment make the whole process smooth and reliable and we really value the partnership.”
