Dear Tony - thank you for all of your help and support during our CPC course without it I’m not sure any of us would have gotten through.
The last official examinations I took part in were my leaving certificate in 1991 so as you can imagine I was a little apprehensive on starting something new.
One of the first things that came to light on day one of the course was the camaraderie of the students - it wasn’t a typical classroom situation which certainly helped. The fact that you encouraged the students to discuss various topics as we were covering them very often gave us a whole new insight into things. You also had the habit of relating your own experience in life to different areas we covered which helped to make it real for us and enabled us to relate it to something other than a text book.
The notes we were given throughout were clear and concise, there was no waffle to confuse us, also the use of the past examinations was excellent because it gave me a chance to once again see the format of a State Examination and practice them in my own time.
I cannot recommend you highly enough, I hope to go back perhaps this year or early next year to complete the CPC for Haulage, and believe me I have no hesitation in going back to do this with you as I would be quietly confident that I can pass.
The only thing people need to remember is that no matter how good your tutor is if you are not interested, or don’t put in some work you cannot pass, but this is true no matter what you do in life.
Once again many thanks for your hard work and commitment that you showed to us all during the course, you made yourself available to us if we needed to discuss the work and you provided us with endless opportunity for revision days if we chose to take part.
Deborah Caldbeck (Swan Taxis Ltd. Mallow - 6th January 2012)
Thank you for providing an enjoyable learning experience, as well as a very professional, availability at all hours to respond to any difficulties I had. Rest assured that I have benefited considerably from the experience of having undertaken my CPC course with CPC Training Ltd. I intend to base my career in the future on the knowledge I have gained. I have highly recommended CPC.ie to a number of acquaintances and friends considering a Transport Management CPC, as from the start of my research into course providers; you and your company have left a lasting, extremely positive impression.
Patrick Quinn
I would like to thank you for your brilliant course enabling me to pass my CPC exam with flying colours. I did the course elsewhere before and failed. Your course is outstanding and as someone who didn't even do the Junior Cert. I can assure anyone that they will pass with you. I got 72% and this was down to your delivery and notes. Thanks again and give anyone my number if they want reassurance on getting through with your company. I'm so delighted. Kevin Higgenbottam (Dublin –June 2011)
I successfully completed the Transport Mangers CPC course in January 2010.The course was delivered at weekends in a very open, friendly and relaxed environment in which to learn. Although the content was intense, it was broken down into powerpoint presentation format which allowed you to learn and understand each stage.The Course Director invited each person to openly discuss topical issues, he expertly delivered each class with such energy and positivity, that within two weeks, nothing seemed too difficult to take on and learn. I soon developed the understanding that the right attitude changes everything. He instilled a confidence into the class along with nurturing a want and need to learn more. He actively encouraged questions and answers sessions throughout the class which allowed people to express and enhance their own knowledge, this in turn led to great discussions and many friendships were formed. I cannot emphasis enough how much I have benefited from this course both on a professional and personal level. It will be the platform on which I base my future training and teaching. Patrick Bartley
I was very nervous about doing my CPC course. It’s 38 years since I’ve been in a classroom. I was taken out of school when I was just 14. I could not read until I was over 30 years old and on top of that my wife was very sick for over 10 years, she died of a brain tumour last year. I’m 52 years old now and all I can tell you if I passed it the first time anyone can! If you just listen to Tony and follow his notes you too can pass it first time. I couldn’t recommend Tony’s CPC course enough. I couldn’t have done it without you may thanks. - Tony Donohue (Dublin)
I really enjoyed doing the course and you are very good at delivering it. Your notes are very good and helpful and there was little work outside the classroom. I would recommend your course to anyone who wanted a career in transport management. I’ll be doing the passenger course with you next. ThanksCongratulations on a very well-run Transport Manager CPC course. You maintained our attention throughout and made it very interesting. The rapport you created with the class really encouraged class participation and I really benefited from all the ‘Transport’ anecdotes/ experiences exchanged by everybody. Your notes on the course are superlative in highlighting the main points in each chapter. The input by you in broadening discussions on different topics again was a major help in understanding difficult/ technical issues, for me. I achieved 81% overall in the exam, a mark I never achieved in my life, and, at 56 years of age, a pleasant surprise! I would not have achieved this high standard without your brilliant input as tutor. From the first session you brought every member of the class along‘with you’. You coaxed us and encouraged full participation. All questions were treated seriously and the answes were explained with great clarity. You were available before and after class, as well as during breaks and took phone calls at all hours and replied promptly to email queries. Full marks, again, to you and thanks for a very informative and enjoyable experience. - Eugene Manton.
I found your tuition excellent and also very innovative compared to other courses I have attended, which is 4 including a degree programme within in the last 12 months alone. - John Ward
I am writing to you to compliment one of your lecturers, a Mr. Tony Hynes, who I must say is an excellent representative of your institute. I attended a CPC course with Tony and not only did he bring me through the material and help me pass the exam he also gave me extra tuition at no extra charge. He also transported me to course venues and, as a woman of 60, I was very grateful for his understanding and help. I have now passed the exam and I wish to thank your institute for having people like Tony deliver this course as it was very intimidating and frightening for me at first until he reassured me and got me relaxed and helped me to pass. Please pass on my thanks to Tony as I much appreciate all he did. - Bridie O’Connor Carmody
Tony's course was fantastic and I highly recommend it to anybody who is interested. Tony is a fantastic instructor very energetic and extremely helpful and I thoroughly enjoyed it. His hand-outs are excellent and straight to the point and if ever I needed help which I did on a couple of occasions I rang Tony and got the information I needed there and then. My advice is do this course. - Laurence O'Brien- Dublin
If you are considering taking a CPC course look no further than this website. After I had spoken with Tony Hynes I had no hesitation in taking up his offer of a place on the CPC course. His guidance and advice was constructive and supportive. This course was excellent. The presentations were highly interactive and individual lectures were of high quality and reflected the interests of class participants. Tony Hynes delivers excellence in his presentations drawing on his vast experience of the global road transport industry and its development up to the present time. He has a dynamic teaching style that enables each learner to develop their knowledge and skills to a high level and at their own pace. This is evident in his course being approved by the Institute of Transport and Logistics. The course is supported by a comprehensive course manual covering all aspects of the course content. Careful thought was given throughout the course to providing guidance for course participants with their studies between units of learning. Attention was given throughout the course to revising existing learning and clarifying concepts before moving on to the next topic. I found the course enjoyable and rewarding as I developed my knowledge in this new area learning. Tony and his team are to be congratulated on delivering an excellent course. - Leo D'Arcy, Course Participant
Just a thankyou for getting me through the cpc course with a sucessful pass. it was a superb course because it touched on all aspects of setting up a transport business. In this day and age its a very usefull qualification to have as you,ve got it for a lifetime. the way the course was delivered was second to none and as i,d not been in a classroom for over 20 years, i even surprised myself with what i achieved. i,d have no problem in recomending this course to anyone who wants to set up their own transport business. once again thankyou tony - Tony Swanick, Castlerea
The most surprising thing was how much I didn’t know. Simple clear notes, well delivered lectures combined with the passion, drive and knowledge that Tony has for this subject made this THE BEST training course. If you are involved in the transport industry get on board and enjoy the learning and reap the rewards. Open your mind, improve your skills and get the knowledge to enhance your lifestyle. Thanks for the experience - Eamonn Mc Evoy
Just a quick note to say thanks for getting me through the CPC in haulage. It was a daunting task at first, going to the hotel , studying, meeting others. I knew nothing about haulage or trucks or vehicles but worked in operations in logistics, so I felted I needed some experience in the Transport end. It was a great course very informative and the teaching method, while unique (!) was great and you held my attention and showed us how to learn, focus on the important issues, watch for re occurrence and gain confidence. On the day of the exam it was scary but doing the mock was great and just focusing on what you knew got me through. So thanks again and I’m sure it will help in get on in my career.
- Mark Delaney
This is to thank you for all the support and knowledge you gave to help me passed my cpc manager exam. I currently a french speaking from Cameroon, went I first register for the courses I told language will be a barrier for me as my english was not an academic english. But the course was extremely well presented and the handouts make it easy to pass the exam. I got 75%. There is 24 hour backup from Tony and I would highly recommend his course if you want to pass your CPC exam first time. I have sent this email to compliment your course and especially to acknowledge Tony Hynes for his excellent work.
- Maurice Kameni
Just to say also Tony a word of thanks for all your help during the course itself. What started off in October for me as a “chore”, something that had to be done, just get it out of the way” ended up being a really enjoyable experience, where I’ve learned a lot of valuable information, not only relevant to course but in regards life itself. I met lovely people, a couple of whom I will remain in contact with beyond January 28th. - Aine O’Grady
I was searching for somewhere to do the management CPC course for a while but couldn’t find a provider that could accommodate me in relation to my work, I couldn’t get time off, that was until I found CPC.ie. The course was delivered every second weekend in Dublin which was just up my alley, it gave me time to revise what was covered each session. The course gave me a much broader outlook and a greater understanding of transport operations, there’s a lot more to transport than meets the eye. The trainer, Tony Hynes, made it simple, continuously revising as we went along and keeping it in simple English, it was hard to lose track of where it was going. There weren’t enough hours in the day. MONEY WELL SPENT and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending CPC.ie for Transport Management CPC, it will change your life and career prospects beyond the shadow of a doubt. Don’t think about doing it, DO IT.
- Tom, Dublin.
just a short mail to say thanks for your guidance for the exam all went well and was wondering can you send me my actual results also I had our drivers on the driver c.p.c and they enjoyed the day best of luck will definitely doing more business with your company in future. - Garreth Cox
Just wanted to say thank you to you and your staff for a well delivered and presented course. I will be recommending your company to our HR department for other Bus Eireann employees required to do this course/exam. - David Lane
I found your teaching practices to be motivational and even inspirational at times and was very impressed by your general knowledge and experience which you generously shared with the class. Despite attending one of the best As Gaeilge schools in the country, through personal problems I did not achieve the leaving cert I desired. The reason I mention this is because despite not getting the results I wanted I still use a huge amount of that schools ethos on life. I took all these on board when I was in my impressionable teens and I would be surprised if I was not using a few of the general lessons (outside of the cpc) that I picked up on your course for years to come. I would readily recommend your services to anybody. - Andrew Dineen
It has been on my mind for some time now to put pen to paper and say a heartfelt thanks for all your help and assistance which resulted in me passing both Haulage & Passenger Transport Managers CPC exams recently. I was extremely anxious the first day attending the course as it had been a good number of years since I had studied or had sat an exam. However you very quickly that day put both my mind and all the others attending at rest by assuring us that with your dedication and expertise and a little hard work from each student we were going to pass our exam. The way you delivered the course content enabled me to have a very clear understanding how to approach each topic on the course. For the first time in my life I found learning both enjoyable and fun and on each days training the day always came to an end far too soon. I quickly gained the confidence I needed to pass the exam and in fact it made me hungry to learn even more and complete other courses which I have done recently. It amazed me how even at break times people were around you like bees around the honey pot and you were always eager to go through any questions that they had. In fact I don’t ever remember you taking time to eat lunch! Day or night you were at the end of the phone to help if there was something that students did not fully understand or needed to discuss. From my experience of having completed these exams with you I certainly would not hesitate for one minute in highly recommending you to anyone thinking of completing the Transport Managers CPC in the future. Again my sincere thanks to you Tony for putting so much time and effort into helping me achieve my goal. - Rita Cole
I recently completed a CPC course in Transport Management and sat the exam (passenger paper) on January 28th. The course had been arranged by my employer, Bus Eireann, and was presented by Mr. Tony Hynes of CPC.ie. ..who made this course so successful. He brought the course to life and delivered it with such energy and enthusiasm that it would be impossible not to learn from it or not to enjoy it. The handouts and notes he provided were of the highest standard - clear, concise and invaluable for revision purposes. During the lectures, as we worked through the course manual, his understanding of each of the chapters and the topics contained therein was astounding and furthermore, his ability to explain and simplify these subjects helped greatly with our understanding and learning of same. The many discussions we had on various aspects of transport and business management were thoroughly enjoyable and here again Tony's skills were evident as he linked everyday business occurrences with the course material and the practical realities of running a modern day transport operation. I wish to thank and congratulate him for such an excellent job very well done. - John McIntyre
Thank you to you and your staff I attended a Cpc course Module four which was delivered by Rita Cole. From the time I arived she was Welcomeing and professional with a unique manner that put a lot that are playing catch up at ease even with the people that were not to good at english she got her point to them and they felt included in the course at all times. I have done Module two with ISM But did not enjoy it as it was not put to us in the same way as your trainer did today. I will be back to CPC.ie to do the rest of my modules with yous once again thanks to you and your team - Darren Hale
Just to say thank you Tony and your team for my success in achieving my certificate in transport manager CPC in January 2011. From the first day I attended your course in the Green Isle Hotel I felt I had chosen the right person to deliver this course. The professionalism and structure that was presented throughout this course made it both interesting and informative for me. It was obvious that Tony had put alot of research, preparation and effort into the course. Originally I had visions of going back to school again as a mature student and seeing the teacher standing up there being serious but alas this was not the case. The atmosphere and attitude of the tutours towards us "students" was relaxed and comfortable thus making it a very successful and motivational course. I am aware of other colleagues who attended this type of course elsewhere and unfortunately were not successful first time round so for me I am thankful I made contact with Tony and attended his course and achieved my certificate. I would highly recommend Tony Hynes to anyone that is considering this course. Once again thank you Tony for everything.
- Francie
Take my advice and do your CPC with Tony. Unfortunately I did a CPC Course and exam elsewhere and I failed. Fortunately I then went to Tony and I even travelled from Kerry to a special summer course he was running in Birr. It was brilliant! His way of teaching and his special notes were like chalk and cheese compared to my previous experience. There was just no comparison between the delivery and quality of the two courses. I flew through the exam and I couldn’t recommend Tony highly enough. So if you want to pass your CPC first time and enjoy the experience of a great course make sure to take my advice and do a CPC Course with Tony.
- Jimmy Murray, Tralee
Tony’s CPC course was absolutely fantastic. He couldn’t have done more to cover the information in an absorbing and interesting way. Tony also gives invaluable support and advice both during and after the course. He puts his heart and soul into his teaching and his students and it was better than winning the lottery when I passed. – Collette Ashe, Kerry Community Transport
Dear Tony – I just want to say thank you for all your help during the course, you really put your heart into helping people get through the course and it shows. You have a great way with people making us feel at ease particularly since it’s been many years since I did an exam. I am so delighted with my results and enjoyed all the laughs we had along the way. Best wishes.–Caroline Sheridan
I would like to commend one of your C.P.C. course Director Mr. Tony Hynes with whom I completed & successfully attained a C.P.C. in Road Haulage operations. I am not involved in the Road Transport Industry but elected to attend the course merely out of a very big interest in it, I found Tony to be very energetic, extremely helpful, dedicated, knowledgeable & an excellent course director, Tony had at all times the interest of the attendees his foremost priority, this was reflected in his course preparation & presentation. Tony is a very good ambassador for your Institute and I thoroughly enjoyed the course and it has prompted me to look further into courses provided by your institute with a view to a career in the Transport Industry.- Michael Laffey
This course was extremely well presented and the handouts make it easy to pass the exam. I have been out of school for 26 years and this was the first comprehensive course I have attended – I got 85%. There is 24 hour backup from Tony and I would highly recommend his course if you want to pass your CPC exam first time. Tony also managed to get me a job when the course finished. – Brendan RosneyI was a bit nervous about doing the CPC course! I felt I wouldn’t have the experience and the knowledge others would have in the class, but Tony assured me that I didn’t need to have any particular experience or knowledge and so I said I’d have a go. After successfully passing the exam and being awarded a CPC Certificate I must say I found the course very interesting, challenging and rewarding. It’s all down to Tony’s hard work, encouragement and efforts to help us through this course and to get the best from this course that we possibly can. My advice to anyone about to do this course is to give it your 100%, keep on top of your notes, if you don’t understand something-ask about it. – Aileen Byrnes
Hi Tony - I am writing to express my gratitude to you for my CPC certificate and how easy you made it for me - not only going back to learning but I never thought that I could sit an exam and pass especially at my age (I am in my 68th year). You have brought out qualities I did not know I had. Thank you Tony and good luck. John O’Brien, Lougher, Annascaul, Co. Kerry
This course was brilliantly presented. The method of delivery and the notes used meant that I had very little work to do outside the actual course days. I would highly recommend this course as it will give you incredible knowledge of running a business effectively and profitably.–Sean Woods
I was very nervous before starting this course as I hadn’t sat in a classroom for over 30 years and had not completed second level education. However the quality of delivery and the support I received on the course meant I passed first time. – Martin O’Sullivan
I was worried that it would be all too technical and that I would be the only female on the course, but I enjoyed the course enormously, learnt a lot and was surprised by the number of other women on the course – we all passed. – Mary Walsh
Hi Tony, Just a quick note to say thank you I passed my exam!! I really appreciate that you took so much time to acquaint me with the course and it was so well laid out. It is no wonder that your company comes so well recommended and retains so many recommendations (I will defiantly recommend to Colleagues). I felt I learned a great deal from you certainly enjoyed the course. This will be an addition to my qualifications and experience; it will bring excellent work habits and judgment to my position with the countless demands my time. Many thanks and best of luck. - Gavin Stapleton
Thanks Tony – I couldn’t have done it without you. The business is now set up and running well thanks to all the advice and support you have given me. – Donal Callaghan
