What our companies say...

HETA provides us with a professional and highly efficient training service at all our plants in the UK, from conducting our Engineering apprentice training to arranging bespoke courses for us at the drop of a hat. All the training they provide is conducted by a helpful and approachable team, where nothing is too much trouble.

Karen Tibble, McCain Foods, Technical Training Administrator North

We have had the good fortune of dealing with the HETA for some years, and have found them to be very professional. The Genie apprentices that attend the Humberside College have received outstanding levels of training and have settled in well, which is vital at a young age. We are provided with constant updates on how our apprentices are performing, this is very important as together we can monitor and address any potential issues they may arise. I would highly recommend HETA and its services to all within our industry.

Tony Lock, Terex Genie, Training & Compliance Manager

It’s great to have a local training partner that can provide solutions for apprentices through to experienced engineers. Our recent request for you to help us develop an affordable and flexible upskilling programme is testament to the diverse range of training you can offer. The process has been well coordinated and you have a friendly and welcoming approach which I would not hesitate to recommend to others
