Data Academy Reviews 

Recently completed my fork truck refresher course and trailer course at date academy and they were brilliant.
The instructors were excellent teachers and very easy to talk too.
I would highly recommend using data academy.

Really happy I did my C1 training and test through Data. I'd been messed around by another company in Nottingham who kept saying they had good offers on advertised all over their Facebook but never could answer what the offers were or get back to be with availability.
Dorian was very efficient in contacting me back and working dates around my work schedule and explained the whole process to me with what aspects would be covered on which days, this gave me confidence after a bad experience with the other company.
I met my instructor, Dale, who is a lovely chap and genuinely wants to do his best to help you pass. He's approachable and calm from the start. He explains things in a very calm and simple way and addressed bad habits. He then explained again what Dorian had explained regarding what aspects would be covered when throughout the training and then what would happen on the day of the test. I found having this explained to me useful as it can be quite a nerve racking experience so it helped that I knew the structure.
In my experience, the vehicles used are of a high quality, clean and well maintained and Dale helped me to understand how to drive it and use all the controls in preparation for my test.
The site is easy to access from the M1 and close to the test routes used so you don't spend a lot of time travelling to where your test will be and are able to cover the potential test routes across the two days training provided.
Everyone in the office (Rachel etc.) is lovely when you walk in and talkative which helps with any nerves you may have.
I would definitely recommend Data and would return to them should I require any further categories on my license.

Wow what can I say apart from amazing team of people I was so nervous and panicky about getting it right I was thinking to fast over thinking the answer and the team here help me calm all that down explain to slow it down read the question and it was so easy to understand the way they explain it and having adhd they adapted to my needs and understood if your thinking of doing any driving classes and bit nervous and unsure what to expect but need reassurence and guidance then data academy is the place to be passed my hgv class 2 first time and couldn’t of done without you guys so thank you again again u have helped change my life thank you Jason Hadley

Fantastic driver training company.
I did my cat C and C+E a year ago with them and have just done my initial cpc with them. John was a great instructor for my cat C and Eddie for my c+e who was great. Phil and Roger were fantastic in teaching CPC part 4 which I got 100% pass mark. Dorian is superb, very friendly and helpful. The rest of the office staff are great. Best driver training company I have used in all the years I've been driving. Best price for what you get taught. They teach you at 150% so you pass at high pass mark and so you know info and skills more for once you have passed and on the road.

I tuck my test here and I past first time and I would highly recommend this company and great customer service from all the team. Thanks simon brough

Fantastic people, helped me through my LGV C and CPC, i passed first time thanks to their professional training, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for HGV training.

Couldn’t thank this company enough, especially Glen. He’s a really good instructor, you can see when he is showing you how to operate the FLT that he has experience. I’ve just passed my FLT training thanks to him.

I’m a director of Imperial roofing merchants In SYSTON Leicester and we have recently used this company to train up one of employees for his large goods vehicle qualification . Right from the start I engaged with a lady called Rachel who helped us through the whole process from start to finish in a very professional manner , always keeping us informed of events coming up and progress of our employee . I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this company .

Passed my CAT C test this morning. All I can say is the guys at Data helped me beyond measure. Such a relaxed but informed learning environment. Made to feel super welcome both in the office and the truck.

My instructor Tony was always happy and well presented he helped point me in the right direction when needed and offered support to help me get ready for the test.

Can't thank them enough and would 100% them for anyone looking to get further driving qualifications.

I have just taken my B+E test with Data Academy and would highly recommend them to anyone. They were all so friendly and incredibly helpful.
Great teaching and after making a really silly mistake in my first test last week, they managed to get me in very quickly for a second test which I passed with no minors - definitely all down to the guys at Data!
Thank you for all of your help!!

Having taken both my C and B+E training and tests with Data Academy I can thoroughly recommend them. I was fortunate enough to receive first time passes with no prior experience or knowledge and with all teaching carried out by the team of Data Academy.

All staff have been very thorough / helpful with bookings, theory and practical training. Any questions (no matter how simple or complex) have always been answered to an excellent standard.

The Data Academy team are a warm friendly and helpful bunch. They make the early starts very easy to deal with. The bakery treats are the icing on the cake!

All theoretical and practical training are very well led. They were very happy to run through areas which I specifically asked to practice further on.

With no hesitation, I can wholeheartedly recommend the Data Academy team to train with. Look no further!

Great place, great people. Fantastic environment to learn everything you need to pass your tests. The instructors are all very patient and knowlageable. The office guys are all friendly and are always on hand to help with anything you need. I had never even so much as been near a lorry before and then 5 weeks after stepping foot indide data academy im a qualified class 2 driver. Cant recommend them enough.

Fantastic team, very helpful and professional. If you’re looking for the right place to gain your driving licence, there’s a good news- you have found it. Thank you for your help and time we spent together.
