What They Said

Comments from delegates of our property development courses:

“This is the best course for using in the day job that I’ve ever been on, there was so much useful information in here. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend HATC for the delivery of this course. This course will, without question, complement your day to day project management skills”

Attended the 2020 PM4AHD course.

Debbie Mitchell

Project Manager, Eastlight Community Homes

“Thank you so much for having me on the courses. They have made a massive help to my knowledge and I will be coming on the next Design and Planning one hopefully in February!” 

Attended the Understanding the Development Process and Intermediate Development 1 – Acquisition courses.

Sam Williams

New Business Officer (Development), Town & Country Housing

“Excellent course which dealt with the topic in a comprehensive and  relevant way. Lots of useful examples and case studies provided and this is going to be invaluable in helping me in negotiations at all levels.” 

Attended the  Introduction to Negotiation course.

Kuldip Mann

Regeneration Officer, London Borough of Ealing

“The MS Project training was extremely useful in providing an introduction to the software and its potential uses. The programme forces the PM to focus on the project tasks and sequencing to a greater extent than other programming software; this is beneficial in many respects but mainly as it clarifies the processes and the project’s priorities. A very useful tool.”

Attended the Gantt Charts Demystified – an introduction to MS Project. course.

Sally Corbin

Technical Manager, Thames Valley Housing

“I really enjoyed the course and would recommend without hesitation. Being relatively new to development (8 months) I felt that the course provided an excellent general overview. There were terms and areas that I had limited knowledge of and the course has helped me understand these. There were also areas I had zero prior knowledge of and these were explained very well. The course has certainly helped me in my current role. I will be asking my employer if I can attend the more advanced development course.”

Attended the Understanding the Development Process course.

Amy Hickman

Development Officer, Jephson Housing

“After the 2 day course I came to work totally motivated by Andrew; his energy and passion for this field of work is catching! I was engaged for the full 2 days and look forward to further HATC training.” 

Attended the Understanding the Development Process course.

Michaela Fullalove

Development Officer, Thames Valley Housing

“Thanks Andrew. I was not sure how the virtual session was going to turnout, but I have got to say, I actually preferred it! It still felt interactive, being able to ask questions and still learning a vast amount, I found it to be no different to the previous ‘in-class’ sessions I have done with you.”

Attended the Intermediate Development 3 – Building Contracts, Construction & Beyond course.

Sam Williams

New Business Officer (Development), Town & Country Housing

“Just to say thank you very much for the training, you delivered the course really clearly & answered all my questions.  I have a low level of dyslexia which makes it difficult at times to follow training, but I found your course the easiest to digest, retain the info and follow.” 

Attended the Understanding the Development Process course.

Carla Clarke

New Homes Officer, Hightown HA

“Excellent course –  informative, interesting and inspiring. The topics were very well presented and all relevant, and the course material is a really useful reference tool.  It was also helpful to have the opportunity to discuss areas of particular relevance in greater depth.” 

Attended the Intermediate Development 3 – Building Contracts, Construction & Beyond   course.

Bernadette Kiernan

Project Co-ordinator, London Borough of Southwark

“Thoroughly needed, well presented in a clear and relevant manner.  Confident and knowledgeable presenter, also able to manage participants’ expectations – and behaviours!”

Attended the Project Financial Evaluation course.

Leslie Clarke

Senior Development Manager, BPHA

“The course was very relevant to my role.  There is a lot of subject matter to fit in 2 days, and so there isn’t much time to go into detail on each subject, but the course has built my confidence when tackling the challenges of my development role.”

Attended the Understanding the Development Process course.

Polyhymnia Bradshaw

Graduate Trainee Project Manager, East Thames

“The course was very relevant to my role. There is a lot of subject matter to fit in 2 days, and so there isn’t much time to go into detail on each subject, but the course has built my confidence when tackling the challenges of my development role.”

Attended the Understanding the Development Process course.

Chris Thompson

Development Officer, Thames Valley Housing

” I thoroughly enjoyed this course and just wish that I had gone on it sooner! I have recommended that we bring it into our Graduate Programme with new starters attending within the first few months of employment. I think it very effectively gives an introduction to key themes and demystifies a lot of industry-speak”

Attended the Understanding the Development Process course.

Development & Regeneration Project Manager Trainee, East Thames Group
