Went to MCT to train as a Forklift Driver. Gordon Mears series of instructions were well planned, clear and extremely well explained, as were his practical instructions. I would highly recommend Mears Construction and Training to anyone wanting a very experienced and well prepared training program. This was the start of a well paid secure position in the forklift industry. Now planning on going back to gain more knowledge and skills through other training courses he offers. Many thanks Gordon.

Experiences to share - Most people have a wealth of experiences to share, while excellent mentors pair these valuable experiences with lessons they have learnt from them.
Encouragement and support - Many local development programs are centred around encouragement and support. Having support in the workplace may alleviate much of the pressure you feel.
Questioning and challenging skills - Questioning from a good mentor will challenge your perspective, expand your thinking and re-evaluate your views.
