Testimonials

"Highly recommended course, with a well planned layout and structure, imparting the necessary knowledge in detail, without being overbearing.  The instructors were always very helpful and prompt through email, and the whole experience made the process of learning Yachtmaster theory, an enjoyable one.  Thanks."

"Just a quick note to say thanks for all your support during my course. I would recommend it to any and everyone as the best and only way to gain the knowledge prior to safely getting on the water"

"A superb learning experience, pushing me out of my comfort zone, with positive outcomes! I would happily recommend the team at Urban Truant."

David S

"Having attended courses before I wasn’t initially sure I would get on with working in isolation, but it was great! I was able to speed up in sections I was familiar with and take my time where I needed it."

Steve

"Many thanks for taking the time to help and once again for providing what has been excellent support allround.
 
I’ll be ordering my coastal theory in the next week or two!"

Judith

"I thought that the online training has been really well put together. A nice mix of reading online, videos, reading supporting material etc and the module tests give good coverage. I have accessed the material from an iPad and my desktop with no issues on either, even with a pretty poor broadband signal by my desktop. And the way that the exam was marked and then made available for resitting specific questions was great – much better than repeating everything. Overall the online classroom has a very professional look and feel.
 
I am aware that I could do with a bit more depth of knowledge in some/many of the areas, so will enjoy revisiting as and when required over coming months."

Peter

"I would recommend Urban Truant and Sailing Course Online to anyone who is doing their Day Skipper ticket"

Therese

"A very belated thank you for your time in the classroom the other day.  I found your explanation and clarification of the issues I was encountering with the Chart work clear.  I found it very beneficial and I was reassured after our conversation that I should be able to pass the exam. 
 
Your set up there is fantastic and very welcoming."

"Excellent learning facility, I've recommended it to my mate who will be in touch!"

Muhammad

"Thanks for the email and tips. I really enjoyed the course, the material is well thought out and simple to understand and the kit you supply is very good, but the best bit of the course is the service, support and the exceptionally quick response time and patience that you/Urban Truant have provided which has made the whole process less stressful.
Overall a great choice of provider at a great price with great service.
It has been a real pleasure and I look forward to booking some practical training with you soon."

Liz

"Thank you so much for taking time to talk me through that question today, and for all your support and encouragement throughout the l-o-n-g time it has taken me to get this far. You have been exceptionally kind in extending my access to the course material again and again, and it is very satisfying to have finally completed it.
The real adventure begins now, and I'm looking forward to putting the theory into practice as and when opportunities arise, and then on a regular basis when David retires next year - can't wait!
I have recommended Urban Truant to several friends, and will continue to do so."

Director of Pupil Development and Leadership - Charterhouse School

"I am currently engaged on the RYA Yachtmaster theory course online. Should you be able, do please thank the author/narrator of the series of training videos that accompany the course. His calm, confident and good natured commentary has been an enormous help throughout the course, to the point that watching these video clips has been an absolute highlight of the course. You chose the perfect character for this role!
 
Thanks
