Paul Dutton has always wanted to progress and do well. If a job doesn’t have potential, he wants to move on to something better. 

“I have done many hands-on jobs in my life — anything from construction and demolition to warehouse and factory work. By nature, I always wanted to add more strings to my bow and that’s why I’m here training with NIS. Once I sign up to something, there’s no going back, I’m so invested. My mentality on this course has been to focus on myself and getting what I need from this experience.” 

“I know the rail industry has so many opportunities, and that really motivates me to do well and work hard. I have been so focused and enjoyed every bit of it. The tutors are all great and they all have different ways of teaching, which is a nice mix. There are always class discussions and if you don’t understand something, you can always ask for help.” 

“It feels good coming out of this course knowing I have more skills and better knowledge. I hadn’t been to college for nearly ten years, so I didn’t know what to expect, but this has been a great routine for me and I have thoroughly enjoyed it.” 

“This is an important commitment for me, especially because I want to do this for my little girl and my family. I have really enjoyed learning new things — this course has given me everything I wanted so far. My goal is to have a good career and aim high.” 

“Don’t give up and don’t let the hard work put you off. This is a big industry with many opportunities that you wouldn’t want to miss!”
