I was extremely pleased with the training provided to our team. The needs of the group were well managed and content flexed accordingly, the pace of the activity was balanced with plenty of time to understand individual needs. Rod had an excellent manner and was open to questions and discussions around the work and providing possible scenarios and examples to deepen knowledge where needed.

It's quite intensive but enjoyable, Ricardo was very good. Would have appreciated a voucher for somewhere other than Sainsbury's given variety of local outlets available (e.g. Nando, Byron...) Otherwise, very much impressed and would use Xchange again.

My 3D Max experience started quite badly but turned up being incredibly easy, fun and relaxing. I want to thank Chris for his great help in managing the situation with such speed, professionality and understanding. And a massive thank you to Rod for his incredible help sorting out gaps and insecurities caused from the previous experience. Anyway, I will probably need a more advance course in the future, as my work schedules will require me to start creating more complex renders over the next 6 months. Will see, not completely sure yet.

Ricardo was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, worked to my speed and even included some extra useful tips when working with other software. The building is lovely with a great location for easy access from surrounding areas. The lunch vouchers are a great added extra! Will definitely be booking again. Many thanks!

Great tutor, covered many basics of Vray rendering. Reality is that I now need to practise lots to gain confidence in what was taught. As a tip fr future training, I think it would be useful to follow up the training courses with recommended video links for further learning or detailed notes of the tips and techniques covered. Appreciate each course is adapted for the specific needs of an individual or business but a general learning manual covering off the basics would be useful.
