Lots of additional reading to complete before and after study group meetings, my tutor is very knowledgeable and interactive with the class, I would highly recommend The Procurement Academy!

Samantha Biggs, Ministry of Justice

Reg is a fantastic tutor and everyone at the Procurement Academy has been great, in helping and supporting me to obtain MCIPS status.

Jonathan Harris, Arcadis

The Procurement Academy have made it easy to complete my studies and ensure that my performance at my job hasn't suffered, and has even improved my performance through the use of real-world examples and application of knowledge.

Ben Bodycombe, Office Depot

I am really enjoying the course so far. I enjoy the way Mike delivers the content as he shares experience he has so that we can relate to the learning objectives. I find this way of learning much better than sticking solely to the book. The way we work through exam questions in class is also very helpful. Planning what we would write and then sharing answers with the group. This way you are able to hear other peoples ideas that you hadn't thought of. The group has a great mix of industries which is great as you are able to hear about their perspective of procurement.

Chloe, CIPS Level 4, Nottingham

Excellent tutors, great group, and very good support. After considering College options, I would recommend using the group as the location is convenient and a good mix of public and private sector students

Paul Williams, Melton Borough Council

CIPs all done! All thanks to Reg Dyson and The Procurement Academy, can't recommend them highly enough.

Nigel Prideaux, Commercial Manager, Home Office Fire Commercial

Trainers had excellent knowledge of the subject and made the course engaging

Katherine Blackmore, CGR Supply Chain Governance Specialist, EDF Energy.

I studied Professional Diploma Procurement & Supply (MCIPS) with Reg from 2013 to 2016. Reg is an exceptional tutor, extremely detailed and has the charisma to enthrall attendees endlessly for full duration of class. I studied using a distance learning format and with Reg's guidance, preparation and influence passed all fifteen exams first time. Reg is a credit to any business tuition organisation and I would have no hesitation in recommending potential candidates to Reg's class with full confidence that candidates will receive the highest level of tuition available for the CIPS range of courses.

Evan Rowlands, Group Commodity Manager, Terex Materials Processing

I found it useful that Mandy's answers and feedback would be given in a considered and constructive way. Mandy created a safe environment for questions and observations that enabled quality group discussions. I gained a lot from the classes that Mandy delivered. I have been on multiple training courses but Mandy is the only tutor that I wouldn't hesitate to contact if required for guidance or advice.

Elizabeth Tyler MCIPS, Category Manager, Professional Services Britvic PLC

I completed my CIPS training( level 4-6) with Reg Dyson as my tutor. Thanks to Reg's continuous support and intuitive teaching techniques, I managed to complete the three year course in two years and achieved great results. Achieving MCIPS status while having a demanding full time job would have been much more challenging if it wasn't for the brilliant resources that Reg always shared with his students. He made the intense classes that were held over the weekend fun and engaging and always made sure we walked away with everything we needed to pass our exams. I passed all my exams the first time. Thanks to my CIPS training and all the confidence that Reg always gave me, I managed to get the job of my dreams in a respected biotech company, where I could combine my Pharmacy background with my procurement expertise.
I am forever grateful to Reg and would recommend him to anyone who is considering a similar path.

Zeinab Sulaiman, Medical Affairs Operations, Gilead

I would just to like to say a huge thank you to Reg for his relentless patience, help and support during my CIPS studies and in the ongoing support since with professional advice.
The course covered a lot of information, but Reg delivers it in a concise way that was simpler to absorb. The structure was clear, logical and effective. Reg has obviously put a lot of thought and expertise into designing it.
The Knowledge, expertise and professionalism of his lecturing and support is of the highest standard and achieves results, it is always a pleasure to deal with him.

As usual Mandy's vast experience shone through. I was particularly impressed in the professional & sensitive way she guided some of my more nervous & less experienced colleagues.
