Great ABBE accredited fire door inspection level 3 course. Friendly and very informative presenters and assessors. Great location and excellent admin staff in the form of Sarah. I highly recommend Global Technical 👍Posted on Alan RybackiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The L3 Fire Door Inspection Course by Global / ABBE / WFST was informative and educational. It's reassuringly thorough and leads to a satisfyingly forensic inspection of fire doors. Students complete a pre-study portfolio which means only two days in class. Global manufactures and installs fire doors, and sends doors for fire-testing, so there's also a look at the processes and criteria involved. There are multiple examples of fire-door assembly rigs on the premises to enable a student to practice their skills on a cross-section of door types, each with multiple examples of real-life defects; some less obvious. I've inspected fire doors for years, "just needed a certificate" but I was pleased to have learned new skills during the course. I'd recommend the course to those from all skill levels who wish to gain recognised certification and elevate their skills around fire-door inspection.Posted on shane denhamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The ABBE accredited Level 3 Award in Fire Door Inspection course at the Academy run by Global Technical Services was enlightening and challenging. It was a good balance of preparatory study and in-person attendance, leaving me wanting to know more about the practicalities of Fire Door installation, and the differences in Fire Door testing.
