Testimonials and Case Studies What people say about us

“I imagined apprenticeships to be demanding and stressful, I was under the impression that it was up to me to figure everything out and produce work with little to no guidance and since starting (the apprenticeship) I’ve realised how wrong I was. Tim, my PDE, is exceptional – he’s consistently helpful and thorough. I am really grateful for this opportunity, I’m really grateful to Corndel for delivering such a high-quality apprenticeship."
