Just passed my stage3 ADI test. And ISM was with me from the very first beginning of this journey. From the moment l made the first phone call a year ago l got all the help and guide l needed. Everyone there is friendly, supportive and professional. Including Karl who has high standards of customer care. And l was lucky to get Dave, the best instructor in Ireland, with the endless experience to teach me throughout the 3 stages.I’d highly recommend ISM for all your driving learning needs.Thanks a million.

I recently finished my refresher course for a forklift license in ISM Finglas after doing my 5 day course 3 years ago. I cannot praise the staff, John, Vincent, Karl and the young John and others for their professionalism and relaxed atmosphere, understanding, concise explanations and patience to any and all questions i or any other trainees asked. The only thing the lads will not compromise on is the safety of every person and all property in the building while you are operating a forklift or other machinery. I strongly recommend anyone who is thinking of getting a forklift license to contact ISM Finglas. Thank you lads.

Like to give a big shout out to Terry from ISM for helping me to pass my category D driving test. Terry is a super instructor. Very patient, very funny and very understanding, and at the top of his game when it comes to teaching. I’d also like to thank the two Richie’s who also helped me along the way with some great advice and support. Also big shout out for Adam and all the gang in the office. Overall a super experience.

Passed my category D test first time thanks Terry ,my driving instructor. He was very helpful providing me with necessary skills ,patiently helping me overcome my challenges and build my confidence. He gave me in depth training on everything I needed not only to pass the test but be a good driver. He always provides constructive feedback , encouraging with clear instructions and available to answer any question I have. Terry is amazing professional driving instructor ,a fantastic teacher with lovely personality for tutoring. I learnt tremendously from his lessons and I never thought I would enjoy the process as much as I did. Thank you Terry. Office staff is easy to deal and accommodating in booking lessons. Excellent service all around.

Passed my bus test first time with ISM.Terry was my main instructor and I had a great time learning how to drive with Terry. We had a good bit of craic but not so much that I wasn't learning the techniques to pass first time.Thank you also to Adam and Lucas in the office, the two Ritchie's, Alexander, and also Freddy who done my pretest prep. Worked with loads of people from ISM so sorry if I forgot you but thank your helping me pass my test first time!

I have just passed my D Licence with ISM and they were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Booking the lessons was very easy and any queries were answered and dealt with very promptly. A special mention for my instructor Freddie who had lots of little nuggets of information to help me pass my Test. I've no doubt that his knowledge was a big factor in me passing my test first time and he is an absolute gentleman.

Administration team has good responsiveness and are very professional and polite, but unfortunately I didn't feel my driving instructor was good. I give him 3 stars because he did teach me to drive, but he didn't give me any detailed feedback and didn't mention the things I should look out for in the test.I'm coming up to my driving test and still didn't get specific feedback, so I decided to look for a different instructor to get a second opinion.The difference was like night and day. The most feedback I got from my ISM instructor was some directions about positioning, and that was mostly it. But the other person wrote down the things I did wrong, told me what the tester would look for, and noted all the small details that are important in the actual test.Now I'd wished I'd caught on to the lack of feedback earlier instead of waiting until after 12 EDT lessons + practice sessions finished. But I guess that's life - at least he taught me the basically how to drive. But was it what you'd expect of a driving school that's meant to help you pass the test? Probably not.

Did the 3 day counterbalance course with Mark,Brian and Karl. By far the best course I’ve ever done. All of the training and teaching was extremely accurate. Perfect example of learning and having fun at the same time. The three lads were gentlemen and three of the best teachers I’ve ever had. Would highly recommend ISM Tallaght. 5*+

Just finished a forklift course with Carl and Mark. So professional and patient. Would highly recommend this course.As a woman, I was nervous doing this course as it's usually a male dominated environment but from the moment myself and my other female colleague walked in the door we were greeted so professionally and welcomed by everyone. The lads on our course were all so nice and helpful also.Huge thanks to Carl who was an absolute gentleman and so patient with everyone on the course.Mark runs the training courses excellent and makes sure you enjoy the course as well as having the knowledge to pass the test.Until our refresher, take care and best wishes to these two amazing instructors.

I passed the training course 3 forklifts and it was BRIAN trainer who I thank so much. He gave me in-depth training on everything I needed. It's easy to deal with ism school staff.

I attended this course for a 3 day counterbalance certificate. As an employer myself, I would feel extremely confident hiring someone with an ISM Certificate due to the detail to safety that Mark enforced with every trainee.The only criticism I would make is that there was an instructor sent home on the first day which resulted in me standing around watching a lot more than driving as Mark couldn't watch two trainees on two forklifts at once. Not Marks fault.

Great place to train. Mark, John Preston and Brian are meticulous in their attention to detail and incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of forklift operating. They are all very skilled men. You really do learn a lot with these guys. I did most of my driving training with John Preston. He was very precise, patient and thorough in his teaching. He explained things really well and passed on a lot of practical application knowledge as well as theory needed for the written exams. I looked at lot of different places before I picked ISM. Very happy I did. I highly recommend training with these three lads.

Our team at GPG recently completed a course on pedestrian reach truck with our instructor Stephen who was excellent. He made the training informative and easy to understand for everyone. We would highly recommend him and ISM for any further training requirements we may have. Many thanks Stephen.
