Our Training

At Pitman Training Cardiff, we have many years experience in helping people realise their potential and change their lives. Our success rates speak for themselves, with around 97% of our learners achieving a pass or better and over 70% walking in to a job within 6 months!

Pitman Training’s qualifications are recognised nationally and internationally and our flexible training allows students to start and learn anytime within a fully supported environment, helping them to achieve their goals.

The first thing we do is have an informal chat and get an understanding of what your needs, current skills and future goals are. We then help you decide which course or diploma is right for you and your ambitions.

You can get started at anytime and learn whenever we are open, 6 days a week Monday through to Saturday and 2 late evenings a week until 8pm. We can support you from home and/or in work…the choice is yours!!

We can also deliver the training using distance learning if you are unable to travel into the centre regularly. We are currently helping students from Merthyr, Pontypridd, Tonypandy, Caerphilly, Bargoed, Monmouth, Chepstow and Brecon. Call us today and we can have a chat about how we can help and support you.
