Chieftain Training Avis 

Plethora of knowledge and confidence in what they do.. which they're also very good at passing on to you!

Doug is a fantastic trainer, great experience and he knows very well how to stimolate the students.
Absolute satisfied.

Really enthusiastic instructors and loads of hands-on experience, including with a running engine on the diesel course, building marine electric circuits, plenty of ropes to splice and sails to mend.

The 2 day diesel course (RYA 1 day and supplementary follow on) was great. The instructor was clear and helpful, there was a variety of machinery in the classroom (and outside) to get hands on with. I would definitely recommend anyone that’s looking to do the diesel course to do the full 2 days and not just the RYA 1 day.

Well organised, based on personal experience, adds value.

Well organised, helpful staff. Great tutor and good content

This is the second course I've done with chieftain Training and, as with the first course, it was fantastic. The facilities and equipment were second to none and the trainer was extremely knowledgeable and engaging.

I did the RYA Radar course, very knowledgeable instructor and once again happy I chose Chieftain.

The course was fun, very well organised and boosted my confidence that I could cope if shit happened.

A lot of problem solving. Any questions asked and solved. Very good for boat owners

Carl my instructor spent time in the evening helping me with my own van eletric problems.

Alan the instructor was not only so knowledgeable himself he was able to download this knowledge to our group of 12. He was constantly checking we understood and was demonstrating that understanding throughout the day.
An excellent day. Thankyou Alan.
We at the Kennet and Avon Canal Trust now have greater confidence in supporting our many canal boat customers.

It was an informative and interesting couple of days doing my Powerboat Advanced course. The course was dynamic and helped me improve on my weaknesses.

The instructor (Pete) was great, and taught us in a way that we all enjoyed and learnt from.

The first day was a long day (due to night navigation), but due to the break at Cowes, I didn't feel tired by the end of it.

I cant wait to come back to Chieftain Training to do my CoC and a few other courses. I highly recommend this training centre.

John, was a great instructor and mentor, which together with an eclectic mix of yachties on our course made it a super experience with very much learned and relearned.

Initially I was annoyed that the RYA effectively mandate turning Sea Survival into a qual that has to be revalidated, but having not trained or practised in this area for 24 years, I'm so glad I did it again. As always with Chieftain: slick, professional delivery from industry experts.

Great experience, best school I have been at. Thank you Doug.

The Instructor Joe is an extremely experienced electrical engineer with a very broad range of knowledge . He broke down the basics of marine electrics into a simple format giving a good onsite into the general operations of a craft and troubleshooting
Very enjoyable and worthwhile course.
