Just to let you know that I still appreciate all you and your team at Cerco have done for me, it has changed my life, I now have dreams again for the future something that I would not have believed a few months ago.
I am settling in at Liverpool and Warrington very nicely there a great bunch of people up here, their sense of humour is like mine, yeah I know mmmmad; well some of us have to be!
Take care Chris and thanks again.
P.S. Please send my best to all the staff at Cerco for me.

I was going through some files and uncovered my old Cerco certificate.I was on Course No.200 in January 1991 and found work, halfway through, with Sorbus, UK as a Field Engineer. My career progressed from there to Product Management with ICL and now Fujitsu, where I am responsible for the release of new technology, from our HQ in Japan, for the Europe, Middle East, Africa and UK markets.
It’s been whirlwind 13 years!

I attended Cerco four years ago. Currently I am an MCT trainer for a Microsoft Academy. It’s great fun. A long way from factory life!!!

“At the end of 1998 and closing in for 10 years after I made the decision to attend Cero training in Nantwich, I thought I would touch base and give you a little career update.
I am now working for Nokia in Bristol as the Head of Service Delivery, Music my salary has increased 100% in the last 4 years my responsibilities, stature and confidence exploded :)
The article published in The Mirror a while ago is a tribute to the foundation training and metholagies encouraged
I would like to thank all at Cerco and wish you all a very Happy New Year”

“With the knowledge that I have gained and the help that I have received from the course and from the staff, I can realistically see myself knocking on the door of a very good, well paid position in the next five years. I am personally aiming for Security Analyst, and the information that I have gleaned from the course, shows me that it is not unrealistic and with hard work, dedication and determination is well achievable. I could only give Cerco and its staff the utmost praise and look forward to working with them all again in the future.”

“Just to let you know that I have been taken on by Banctec today and will be working as a Field Service Engineer from Monday morning! Initially I will be working on PCs and Laptops. Printer work will begin after an additional week’s training at Dell the week after next.
Thanks for all your hard work. The Cerco training really paid off!”

I was having a hard time finding a job in I.T. I did many I.T. courses and was training for my MCSE when the school I was with at the time liquidated and I lost all my money. It took me quite a lot of time to gather the funds but I knew that if I was going to break into the I.T. industry I needed a company that not only trained its students with the skills required to do the job, but one that could change its students lives in a positive way.
I had been on many interviews prior to joining Cerco and found no luck in securing a job until I enrolled with them. Cerco helped me improve my I.T. skills and has helped change my life for the better. Cerco delivers on all its promises and is the best choice for breaking into the I.T. industry.
No other company will support and train you as well as Cerco can.

Just a quick note to say thank you, and to recommend every-one interested in IT to attend this course. I came from a background of hardly any computer experience; this course trained me and also gave me the knowledge I needed to get a career within IT.
I believe this was the best £4000 I have ever spent in my whole life; it gave me the opportunity I was looking for to gain my first job. Again I like to thank all the guys that taught us, but a big thank you to Andrew, he is the best teacher I have came across and I believe that his training skills helped me through.
I have just finished my first contract work with Agora Solutions, which has been fantastic and Roger is a brilliant employer. I start in 2 weeks with SCC as a Field Service (IMAC) Engineer, which I look forward to. And also thank you for the interview skills, Chris and rest of the team within Careers.

My experience of recruiting and working with Cerco trained engineers has been fantastic! As well as being good team players the course has given them the skills necessary to work on their own initiative. I put it down to their enthusiasm and desire to develop coupled with the technical challenges of Heathrow Airport for the dramatic decrease in our staff turnover!
