Pros

- Free Training - Bursary paid - Free coffee machine -Quality Training (for foundation modules only !!!)

Cons

- Non-Experienced Java Trainers - Trainees are treated differently - Unstructured training (not following the plan on LMS) -Sales team are not transparent (trainees do not know whether their cvs have been forwarded to clients or not ....also no feedback in case of rejection). -Constantly telling people that the percentages of trainees finishing their training and placed is 99.99% (complete nonsense ). - some CVs were not being forwarded to clients (not all trainees were given the same opportunity ). - trainers are not supportive

FDM Group Response

We welcome all feedback and are always looking for ways to improve. I’m extremely sorry to hear that you do not feel that the training was structured or that the trainers were supportive. Your comments about the Glasgow Academy and trainees being treated differently worries me; and if you are willing to contact me, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further so that I can personally look into any issues that may exist.
