    "Derek clearly knows the real world application of this course and it is always refreshing to have that experience in a trainer." Mark, Director of IT, November 2015

    “Best Practice Training have delivered a number of one day ITIL awareness, and full three day certified ITIL Foundation courses for us on-site at University of Kent. The feedback we have received from attendees has been extremely positive, including common mention that the trainer makes a potentially dry subject come alive. He is sensitive to our Higher Education environment, having experience in both commercial and Higher Education sectors. Best Practice Training have also proved invaluable as an ITIL consultancy to help guide our rapidly maturing adoption of ITIL good practise in a practical way which staff can see the benefit of." Jim Higham, IT Service Desk Manager, University of Kent, March 2013
