"I love working for MPCT. Every day is different and the journey you and the Learners are on watching then develop is amazing. I love it when they tell me at the end of each day what they have learnt throughout the lessons. It is amazing to watch the Learners confidence grow and the skills put into practice with discussions or on Military days."
