Client Testimonials
Here’s what some of our clients say…
Here at A-One, we’ve been using Searchlight’s services for the last couple of years and this year alone we’ve enrolled 138 participants into Searchlight training sessions. These have been a mix of pre-set/made sessions that anyone can sign up to, or sessions that we’ve had created or customised by Searchlight for our business and requirements. Regardless of the type of session, these have always proven to be a huge success, with participants regularly providing kind words and positive feedback... and most importantly, showing an improved knowledge!
Outside of training sessions, Searchlight has also proven to be attentive, helpful and professional at all times. Whether this be when we’re enrolling participants into training sessions, working together to establish the requirements for a custom training session or a general check in.
So far, no task has been too big or small and Searchlight has always done what they can to assist. We certainly look forward to a fruitful continued partnership.
I thought the compliance training landed really well, and the material was brought to life with some good of examples in practice. Easy to understand and engaging. Provided a really good base and understanding of what the FCA approach is and the foundations of operating in a regulated environment. Breaking the elements down in plain English makes it so much easier to understand and less overwhelming. I think the rest of the training programme looks fab, and really well structured. If more people engaged in a yearlong training course on this subject, I think it might increase confidence and there would be less pushback from brokers in terms of regulatory requirements.
Really good technical training from a very knowledgeable trainer. Highly interactive and very interesting.
A very engaging session which is ideal for those new to the insurance industry. The trainer was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly giving real life examples to make the topics relatable.
