Reviews Section Background Image

“Doing my SMSTS course was great and when I asked about additional training TALA were not only able to provide the training but also assisted in sourcing funding for me to do my SVQ in Construction Senior Managment at SCQF 11 (Masters degree equivalent). I'm now doing a part time degree course at Strathclyde University LLM Construction Law. Ian from TALA has supported me all the way. 1st Class Training from a supportive organisation with 1st class people.”
