This was a very informative course and all skills learned were of great use and hopefully will continue to be in other future roles. All of the information in particular implementing Ghantt Charts is currently being put into practice in my current role.
Currently very much enjoying it and I find that it is a perfect level of challenging but understandable.
It was an interesting course, I got more than the knowledge and skills I needed and my tutor Karen Cunningham was the best.

I really enjoyed it and learned a lot from it.
I can’t fault this course in any way really, I really enjoyed the assignments, I thought the information was clear to follow, the videos compliment the chapter notes very well and my tutor, Karen, was lovely and very quick responses. I have already been telling others to look at CMIT for course and can see myself using it again in the future!
I would like to thank Karen for all of her help on assessments and general queries.
i enjoyed the course and its content. I felt this helped me a lot to understand the areas that i had not thought about.
Karen and Sinead were fantastic, very friendly and helpful. I will recommend CMIT to my friends and colleagues.
Sinead and Karen were fantastic and helped me during the completion of this course.
Really enjoyed doing the course.
I loved this course it was so interesting and so full full of information. But never felt bombarded with too much information the lay out is excellent. I am so happy I did this course.
I thought the video content was very well put together and some excellent tips/points included in them.
Really enjoyed it. Was a new experience for me and wouldn’t put me off doing another course.
I choose CMIT as I have previously done my childcare level 6 with CMIT. I think CMIT go above and beyond for students with great help from tutors and the reception / office girls could not be nicer and extremely helpful.
All members of staff were very helpful, the notes were very helpful to understanding the material and it was well put together. The tutor was also very communicative and helpful. I would definitely consider doing another management or a separate course in future with this provider if given the opportunity by an employer or in a career position or training. I’ve done other classroom based courses before but this was a lot better because it was more flexible and there was no transport costs or times needed.
I’ve very much enjoying the course, the content is very well written, the videos are really helpful and the quiz is a great way to recap the section.
Would have nothing negative to say about studying with CMIT. I would highly recommend them and have done so since starting my course.
