I would like to say a huge thank you to Jeremy for all his support throughout my Junior Estate Agent apprenticeship. He has been incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging, always taking the time to explain things clearly and making sure I understood each stage of the process. Jeremy’s guidance has given me the confidence and skills I need to succeed in my role, and I truly appreciate the effort he put into helping me progress.
Maddie Gough
It’s now been just over a week since I officially completed my Level 3 Housing and Property Management course with TACS. My trainer throughout the 15-month programme was Adrian, and I couldn’t have asked for better support. From start to finish, Adrian was approachable, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure I understood each topic. His knowledge of the housing and property sector is outstanding, and he delivered it in a way that was clear, practical, and easy to apply in real situations. Although due to circumstances I’m not currently working in the property sector, I strongly believe this course has set me up with the skills, confidence, and knowledge for more opportunities in the future. I’d highly recommend TACS and Adrian to anyone considering the qualification.

Orchard Chamberlain
I trained with Lucie and she was absolutely fantastic. She tailored every class to my individual needs, focusing on areas where I could improve, and was always ready to offer support whenever it was needed. Even after I was made redundant halfway through my apprenticeship, she continued preparing me for the exams and even secured a placement where I could gain practice. A true class act. Thanks Lucie!!! Hope you continue enjoying your holidays in the Canary Islands ;)
