William Smith Group 1832 - Academy Reviews 

William Smith made us feel welcome and comfortable from the minute I walked through the door. The Instructor Michael was hugely knowledgeable and put the information across in a friendly informative manner happily sharing his knowledge. Due to this I derived a lot of information that I can use back at my workshop.

Excellent training, great facilities and a real feeling that they want you to succeed when you take on work after the training.

This course is exactly what I was looking for when I wanted to learn, improve and perfect my skills. With a small amount of people on the course there was plenty of opportunity for questions and demonstrations and 1-1’s. Bravo!

The kitchen wrapping course was incredible, John at William Smith & Phil from Wrapture are so knowledgable and always willing to go above and beyond to help. There was a range of ability levels with some more experienced than others yet they cater to everyone. I even had some questions and problems I’d encountered on jobs that weren’t related to kitchens but they gave me advice and tips to help me in the future, would definitely recommend

When showing items they should be on full screen. Other than that it was very informative.

Great knowledge from John and friendly atmosphere. Lots of hands on with different materials

A great insight into how vinyl wrapping can be used and the effects that can be achieved.
Delivered in a no-nonsense manner with plenty of opportunity for questions

The 2 day basic course was very good, the course was delivered really well with different skill levels in mind, I didnt want it to end to be honest.

Thanks again John & Tom

I can imagine that working at William Smith is very rewarding, as everyone connected with our open day visit was amazing. Helpful, full of enthusiasm and the knowledge highly impressive. We need more business like this in the UK with true values of service to customers.

Thankyou to all the team for putting it together.

Great team. I had little to no questions as all was explained step by step. Would definitely recommend

The William Smith Academy event was very well organised. The workshops were highly informative, complemented by several engaging lectures. As someone relatively new to the industry, I gained a great deal of knowledge and a deeper understanding of the products and services offered.
The atmosphere was welcoming, and the people were both friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, it was a valuable experience and I would definitely recommend attending future events.

The instructors were really helpful in explaining how the process goes. Giving me a lot more confidence and understanding in going forward with these products.

I attended their Kitchen Application course back in June and cannot say how much they put into the training. We had three instructors across the 2 days, plus other members of staff also giving advice.
Since then i have attended two other training days put on by the company, One in Watford called the A-Team which was very informative, and recently the Open day at their HQ in Barnard Castle. It was to me a great informative day, meeting other people involved in Kitchen application industry who i had met at the previous meeting. Everyone was keen and helpful. It was not only for Architectural installers but also commercial installers and vehical wrappers.
They also laid on food and refreshments all day, and a casino evening for those customers who were staying in the local area. Thank you William Smith Group,

I recently attended an Open-Day at William Smith Group - which included some Academy training, which was extremely beneficial, the trainer was clear, precise and ensured that everyone in attendance was clear on the outcome. Its a warm, friendly environment and highly recommend!

Informative day and networking

I recently took part in the kitchen vinyl wrapping training with William Smith and was really impressed with the whole experience. The course was well structured, practical, and gave me the confidence to take on real jobs.
A special thanks to John, who was brilliant at demonstrating how to fit the vinyl. He explained everything clearly and shared loads of helpful tips from his own experience, which made a big difference.
Would definitely recommend this training to anyone looking to learn or improve their wrapping skills.

Great training day from everyone at William Smith, John and Kane tailored the training to suit everyone’s personal level and answered so many questions for me.

I recently completed the Kitchen Wrap Training Course and honestly, I can’t recommend it highly enough. The course itself was brilliant from start to finish – really well structured and packed with useful tips. The trainers were fantastic too: friendly, knowledgeable and always happy to share their experience.
What really stood out for me was the hands-on side of things. You’re not just watching – you’re actually doing, which makes such a difference. I came away feeling confident and excited to put everything I’d learned into practice.
If you’re thinking about taking this course, go for it – you’ll learn loads and really enjoy the process too!
