Testimonials
Nothing makes us happier than hearing how happy we make you!
“The MoP training provided by QRP, with Jeff Ball, was very effective, many exercises and practical examples have enabled us to understand the exam with confidence. Many valuable tips to prepare for certification were issued. In addition Jeff has demonstrated great flexibility and was able to tailor the course based on my availability disturbed by the imponderables of air transport.”

I appreciated the service-minded attention to ensure that training material was received in time, and not least the mid-ways informal quality control visit during the course to ensure that the course was on track and that it was going as expected. Thank you.”
