What our clients say about us
Excellent day. Even the Friday afternoon session was not a graveyard session. Very very interesting. KF, Bucks CC
I would highly recommend Act Now Training courses to friends and colleagues. This particular course on the GDPR was excellent. The speaker kept us all captivated for the full day and managed to break down the GDPR into a more manageable topic. Doesn\'t seem quite so complicated now. Thank you! DA, Granite Services International, Inc
Tim is an excellent trainer, his depth of knowledge of the subject is always evident, and delivered in a passionate and entertaining way. ED, 3c Shared Services
The GDPR workshop provided a useful overview of the key features of the new legislation and focused on the areas which are likely to require particular attention to help ensure the transition into the new regulatory regime is less painful that it could have been. MB, University of Exeter
What is quite a dull subject usually was presented superbly. The information given was clear and concise and the manner in which it was delivered was engaging and interesting with just the right amount of humour. LC, Brighouse High School
