I'm registered for the ML(S)A, in the process of arranging a training course to do this summer and would be grateful for your recommendations of provider(s) in The Lakes. I know who they are but I need some way of selecting the one that best fits. Who was a wow as opposed to just OK and why? Who prepared you really well for the assessement? Who managed this AND made it sparky/enjoyable? Who would you send a good friend to?

In the interests of fairness, please don't reply on open forum if your advice includes someone you feel strongly that you wouldn't use again. Please email me at: gary.coggon@astrazeneca.com

Many thanks for your help

I've generally been impressed by Apex Training (Paul Platt) - used them for SPA and have had other odd bits of contact. My ML was too long ago to be much use, as whilst the centres still exist, the staff have all changed.

Scotch on the Rocks guiding. Or Abacus mountain guides.

Both excellent and memorable, full of great knowledge. Plus it was just good fun, even on assessment

I used Apex for my ML training and assessment and would definitely recommend them. Very thorough and professional.

Andy Brown is a top all round bloke and runs ml s over 2 weekends which can be handy for some.

Yep, I'll stick in another good word for Andy, too - he's a nice bloke, and I've only heard good reports from people who've done courses with him.
