Excellent place for construction career progress

I first attended Finchley college in 2019 and within this period I have been able to achieve 2 qualifications (NVQ Level 3 & 6) and numerous subsidised courses while working full time and being a new father thanks to flexible learning programs, affordable and feasible payment plans and excellent tutoring I received from Mr Reza.

There is a possibility that there is someone else who is in the position I was in, and has no other way to find out about this college

An extraordinary teacher (Mr. Reza), appropriate teaching material of the latest generation: (Robotic Total Station TS16, GPS, etc.), a multitude of manuals and online courses to help you in the preparation process, and what was the most important for me, the flexible time to take these courses.

Best college for Engineering & Surveying

I m happy to choose Finchley College London for my ProQual level3 diploma in engineering, and surveying. I gained more knowledge of how to use the engineering equipment with full details and how to use them on the actual site. I m a postgraduate in construction project management. After completing my master I don’t know how to use engineering equipment that’s why I google and find out different colleges but when I read the course content provided by Finchley College most of the colleges no provided they cover all aspects of the study that why I choose this college and I m happy my decision to gain a lot of knowledge and good experience.

It's a really great college

It's a really great college. I'm doing there my ProQual NVQ Level 3 in Engineering Surveying.
The teachers are very professional and try their best to make you understand the subject. If student struggle in some areas teacher is always trying to put an extra effort to help him to learn or understand it better.
Apart from theory there are lots of practical exercises. You get full training and understanding of working with Leica Total station, dumpy, laser and digital levels, GNSS.
Also it is easy to get to - just a few minutes walk from Finchley Central Station.
