I'd like to thank my instructor, Rofeda for the great job she did during my 12 lessons showing me everything I needed to know. Today I just passed my driving test without any pre tests as I felt they weren't needed. Highly recommended!
Adam and the lads in Finglas provide an excellent service of providing lessons and instructing trainees. I had a very positive experience with all of the instructors who were very professional and helpful.
Cpc Course very well runWill go again and recommend it to othersThanks Brendan and ISM 👍
Thanks to Dave for your professional training he provided to my fiancé, who is now a fully qualified B & D category driving instructor.
Irish School of Motoring are absolutely first class. I shopped around for lessons, I booked 6 mini bus lessons and the use of the mini bus for the test. Before I booked the lessons Luaksz in the office suggested that I book the CPC theory test as well before I book the lessons so that when I book the bus test then I could also book to do the CPC walkaround test on the same day. No other company I rang told me this information as I didnt have a clue. Luaksz saved me time and money by suggesting this so I am very grateful. My interation with Luaksz was the primary reason for booking with ISM. Secondly I must thank Pat Blake the instructor, he was absolutely brilliant. Pat has years and years of experience as a professional driver. He offered me plenty of constructive criticism, my first 2 lessons were full of bad habits. He gave me a clear idea about what I would need to work on or I would not pass. On the day of the test he was a massive support and extremely helful and calming. Listen to Pat he knows his stuff. ISM are a very good company with great staff in the office and most importantly excellent instructors. Passed my D1 test and CPC test.
I had my lesson with Rofeda Mujahed. She is a very responsible and good instructor. I had lessons with another instructor previously which almost scares me away from driving a car. Rofeda is very patient, encouraging and caring. She gave accurate instructions and guidance in driving which helps a lot as a newbie driver. She is also very responsible on other administrations etc learning records and reminding me to book a test. Would recommend to learn with Rofeda to others.
I Just want to thank Tom, my trainer for his patience and all the staff at the ISM Finglas who helped me obtain my CE Licence for the Artic truck.It was a tough test but thanks to Tom, I got through it with flying colours.Can't recommend ISM and Tom enough and I am looking forward to doing my Bus lessons next.Kind RegardsRory
Did the safe pass course today with Paul Graham and I have nothing but respect for the professionalism of the man and the place, I'll be returning for any other training, excellent.
Had lessons with Murray. Very helpful and constructive, great for building confidence behind the wheel.
I Finished my counter balance forklift 3 days course at ISM Finglas and got my licence,Big thank you and respect for Instructor Mr John and his team.I am satisfied with the experience I had with ism, was easy to get there no problems.Highly Recommend.
I’ve had a great experience with ADI Murray, he is very patient and I’ve progressed quickly with his teaching method.
Very helpful with the cpc and what I had to do to sort the issue I had with card . The price was reasonable and was able to reschedule date .
The best training center in Ireland for Bus Rigid, Artic, Bike and Car
I highly do not recommend this place, I think I wasted a lot of time and money thanks to them. "If I could turn back time..."Who among us hasn't thought so before, I think so now.Maybe my opinion will turn back time for someone and prevent someone from making my mistake
I just passed my Rigid driving test and CPC today. The whole experience with ISM was great, very helpful reception staff and my main instructor was Ger, who was very nice and professional.Thank you ISM and see you soon again.
I had a brilliant Bus driving experience with the ISM. I highly recommended ISM...It started with Adam who was so helpful in answering all the questions, he swiftly arranged all my lessons for me and was so positive about how well I would do, thank you soo much Adam.Then there was my instructor Pat Blake, what an experienced, super instructor he is. On 05/10/2023 I had never sat in a Bus Driver seat but by 23/10/2023 I had passed the test and all because of Pat's patience with me. He explained everything to me and made the whole experience so enjoyable. He is an inspiring instructor and obviously loves his work, I also do lessions with Richard, Dave and Tom. All the instructors are unique and excellent on different ways.. Thanks Pat, Richard,Tom, Dave, Adam and the whole ISM team in Finglas
Just Finished the manual handling course with Irena friendly and Very experienced Teacher
Would highly recommend ISM. I passed my bus driving test first time and I doubt it would’ve been possible without them. Special thanks to Dave , Maris and especially Abdi for getting me to the test standard. 😁
What a team of bus instructor's. . From my first lesson with John, to learn from a bunch of well educated guys consisting of Aidan Terry John Arthur Aleks and Marisk . . I nailed my test, I'd like to thank the instructors for there sharing of knowledge to help me progress in my new career.
Doing cpc with bob very good class very helpful with any questions could not recommend the cpc course any more highly.....
I had my bus test today and passed it with the help of Terry O’Hagan he was a true gent very pofesional and very helpful it was an absolute pleasure to train and have his guidance he made it sound so easy thanks Terry 10 out of 10 all round genuine instructor
I did few lessons with this driving school and i was lucky enough to have William Lambe as my driving instructor. he is super helpful, friendly and experienced and i passed my test from the first time. he is so patient and will get you ready immediately. Thanks a million for your help and i seriously can’t recommend him enough. Muhannad
Did 10 lessons with this company and still don't know how to drive worse place to learn how to drive got brought to the same housing estate for each lesson to drive in a circle it was a joke told instructor that wasn't good enough and he didn't say much. Waste of 500e and there policy of 48 hour cancellation is ridiculous especially when you get sick . Don't waste your money like I did .
Never again. Had 6 lessons took months n months to sort out 3double lessons with constant cancellations. There a sub contractor is all.
ISM Finglas training centre is brilliant. I've done all my CPCs there. Some of the trainers still need to improve time management and instruction delivery, but overall experience, the facilities and kind staff covers 5 star experience.Highly recommended!
Jim Reynolds, handled the course(Safe Pass) and the class with excellence. I recommend ISM Training Centre, Finglas to anyone who wants training and certification.
I did my 12 car lessons with ISM. The team is really helpful, they take care of the suitable timings as per your convenience. I did my pre test booster last week and glad to say passed my test today in first attempt. My instructor William Lambe was absolutely brilliant, helped me throughout the course with constant small little tips and tricks for the test and well it paid off BIG TIME.I was recommended to do my car lessons with ISM by a friend who also passed his test in first attempt. I will absolutely recommend ISM to anyone who is looking for their lessons.
Course was really good . And all subjects ware very well explained by Jim. He made it easy to learn and good sense of humor.
excellent course the instructor Irena was very good at presenting the content.
The chap doing it was very good and told some interesting stories about Construction accidents and safety points, features...
completed forklift instructor course with ISM recently, top class facility, with very well qualified and experienced instructors. John was very knowledgeable and very helpful throughout the course duration.
Did another cpc coarse today in finglas from tutor Lisa,to Jordan in reception who went above an beyond not just for me,but others also.thank you very much.have done most cpc,s here will definitely be doing more.
After just passing my full test I couldn't recommend these more. Especially Ciaran Corcoran . I've done the lessons with him and had a pre test with him the day before. Really made the difficult things easy. Brilliant instructor
I passed my c license driving test after 12 hours of training with ISM finglas. I can recommend Lukasz from the office for organising perfectly lessons and time similar to the official test time. Also highly recommend Ger( instructor) ,he is brilliant to explain everything and really wants to help to pass not only driving but also give tips and possible scenarios on a test day. If somebody will be booking lessons please ask for one instructor for whole lessons. Good luck to everyone and thanks for ISM Finglas !
Hi dear, ISM Team Thank you and much appreciated Terry Hagan for being the best instructor ever! With your guidance and patience you taught me the skills to become a safe driver and giving me the confidence to drive and for helping me to overcome my nervousness. Your lessons were very informative, well-structured and I really appreciated your encouragement Best of luck .kind regards.Mehmood Mohammad.Tullamore Offaly.
Contacted Killian at short notice for test in Ennis. I would highly recommend Killian, excellent instructor, had one pre-test with him and passed first try down in Ennis. I'd like to mention I had failed twice in Cork before trying test in Ennis. Thank you Killian for all your advice and tips on the lead up to the test 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for me!!!
I do all my CPC training with ISM,Very helpful and I learned something new every time, The trainers are very welcoming and encourage class to talk and share about different experiences while doing their job, which educates new drivers coming into the industry.
ISM is an excellent training school. Very professional and friendly instructors. Training was fun, well understood and the practical was so good. Would recommend to friends and anyone I come across that might be interested in same training I got there and I will use ISM again in the future.I thank John Doran senior, John Doran junior, Dave and the other John too. They are very good in their job, they were so friendly and helpful to all my mates that we met there for same training. Great experience all round.God bless them and all the ISM staffs.Chris.
Passed my C licence driving test back in June with ISM. I'd gave my instructor Richie Whyte the impossible task of getting me over the line with a week to my test date. Richie was brilliant and he prepared me perfectly for my test and helped get me the pass I was looking for.Thanks Richie top man.
So far so good. 6 lessons done towards D licence - I've nothing but good things to say about ISM.Update: 3 weeks later. Passed the driving test, many thanks to all at ISM.I enjoyed my time learning here immensely.
Finished my forklift 5 day course yesterday at Ism Finglas and got my license. Big thank you and respect for instructor John, was patient,encouraging and had faith in me to succeed.Overall I'm satisfied with the experience I had with Ism, was easy to get there, no problems. Highly recommend.
Currently on my 5th lesson with ISM, and am delighted with this company.Very professional and I am progressing very fast. My instructor is lovey and has never been a second late. 10/10 would recommend.
Darren and Terry helped me to take the necessary skills for safe and responsible driving. The two of them were the key to help me to pass my test. Thank you again for the great experience
I recently attended and completed a counterbalance forklift course under the instruction of Brian Slater. Good clear instruction, very safety conscious. Highly recommended
I recently had the privilege of learning to drive with an amazing instructor Niamh from the ISM Training. She boosted my confidence and helped me to take the necessary skills for safe and responsible driving. Additionally, her patience and supportive attitude were the key to get passed in my test. Thank you again for the great experience.
Hi I Just passed my D licence with Ism. Great experience with these guys . The lads in the office where great always on hand with everything you need. My instructor was terry and the man is amazing at what he does,made learning so enjoyable and always gave me the time I needed even if that ment him staying back for half hour after my time just to give me the confidence I needed to pass my test. Would highly recommend Ism and terry to anyone looking to start there journey as a bus driver . Don't think I would have passed my test without terry pushing me in the right direction and putting his own time into me when I needed it. 5star these guys . Great experience
Passed my D Licence first time with ISM. My Instructor Terry was brilliant and a real professional. Taught in a clear calm way and greatly helped me. Would also like to thank Dave Malone, Alexander. Ritchie and Adam in the office for organising everything.
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.
Passed my driving test today for the first time on one go! Category B, Manual.Many thanks to my driving instructor Gerry Reid. He is the best driving instructor ever! Very lucky to have him as my driving instructor. I would 100% recommend him to any learner out there.I had one more driving instructor before him from ISM but he was absolutely horrible.He even discouraged me to sit for any driving test let alone automatic.
I really enjoyed the learning experience. The instructors were excellent at their jobs and the course is person centred and enjoyable. It was great to gain 3 certificates in such a friendly atmosphere. I would highly recommend this centre for all you training needs.Cormac Conway
Just passed my category B driving test on the first try after my 12 EDT classes and 2 pre-tests with Igor. Igor is a great instructor who is patient, polite and excellent at giving valuable feedback. Would highly recommend him.
I just completed my C license (rigid truck) and my first time CPC card in ISM Tallaght . The class tutor and driving instructors Timmy Prenderville and Darren Durrant are very easy going and high standard professionals. Learned so much new and useful driving tips. I would recommend Timmy and Darren as driving instructors for any category of the vehicles B,C,D and etc.Thanks to my instructorsI pass my driving test and CPC from first attempt.Thanks to Craig Lowe (Training Co-ordinator). ISM Tallaght
I highly recommend ISM Driving School. I just passed my cat D exam thanks to ISM instructors. I would like to show my appreciation to Martin and Terry, they are amazing instructors. Adam from the office is way to helpful. Thank you guy's, you are the best.
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.
Nice friendly people, who help you to learn safely. I would highly recommend ISM Training Centre in Finglas. Good training facilities and fantastic training/learing experiences.I just finished a Forklift training course and found all the Instructors to be very highly knowledgeable and professional.I would like to thank John Doran, and all the other Instructors, John, Philip and Carl for their expert tuition. I passed the course due to their hard work and expertise.These days it is important to learn new skills which can make a big difference to your life. Having good training facilities and great Instructors gives ISM Finglas the edge and has helped me to change my Career. Very highly recommended.I am very happy I chose ISM Finglas for my training.
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.
Passed my Rigid truck test (C license) in Finglas first time today , with combined lessons from Tony Greene & Tom Bates.Both Men have years of experience & a wealth of knowledge.Office staff (Lukasz) in ISM finglas very easy to deal and accommodating in booking lessons / truck rental.Thanks again.
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.
I'd like to thank my instructor, Rofeda for the great job she did during my 12 lessons showing me everything I needed to know. Today I just passed my driving test without any pre tests as I felt they weren't needed. Highly recommended!
Adam and the lads in Finglas provide an excellent service of providing lessons and instructing trainees. I had a very positive experience with all of the instructors who were very professional and helpful.

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.
Passed my driving test today for the first time on one go! Category B, Manual.Many thanks to my driving instructor Gerry Reid. He is the best driving instructor ever! Very lucky to have him as my driving instructor. I would 100% recommend him to any learner out there.I had one more driving instructor before him from ISM but he was absolutely horrible.He even discouraged me to sit for any driving test let alone automatic.
I really enjoyed the learning experience. The instructors were excellent at their jobs and the course is person centred and enjoyable. It was great to gain 3 certificates in such a friendly atmosphere. I would highly recommend this centre for all you training needs.Cormac Conway
Just passed my category B driving test on the first try after my 12 EDT classes and 2 pre-tests with Igor. Igor is a great instructor who is patient, polite and excellent at giving valuable feedback. Would highly recommend him.
I just completed my C license (rigid truck) and my first time CPC card in ISM Tallaght . The class tutor and driving instructors Timmy Prenderville and Darren Durrant are very easy going and high standard professionals. Learned so much new and useful driving tips. I would recommend Timmy and Darren as driving instructors for any category of the vehicles B,C,D and etc.Thanks to my instructorsI pass my driving test and CPC from first attempt.Thanks to Craig Lowe (Training Co-ordinator). ISM Tallaght
I highly recommend ISM Driving School. I just passed my cat D exam thanks to ISM instructors. I would like to show my appreciation to Martin and Terry, they are amazing instructors. Adam from the office is way to helpful. Thank you guy's, you are the best.
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.
Nice friendly people, who help you to learn safely. I would highly recommend ISM Training Centre in Finglas. Good training facilities and fantastic training/learing experiences.I just finished a Forklift training course and found all the Instructors to be very highly knowledgeable and professional.I would like to thank John Doran, and all the other Instructors, John, Philip and Carl for their expert tuition. I passed the course due to their hard work and expertise.These days it is important to learn new skills which can make a big difference to your life. Having good training facilities and great Instructors gives ISM Finglas the edge and has helped me to change my Career. Very highly recommended.I am very happy I chose ISM Finglas for my training.
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.
Passed my Rigid truck test (C license) in Finglas first time today , with combined lessons from Tony Greene & Tom Bates.Both Men have years of experience & a wealth of knowledge.Office staff (Lukasz) in ISM finglas very easy to deal and accommodating in booking lessons / truck rental.Thanks again.
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.
Just finished 5 day course brilliant and instructors the same highly recommended
My son had an excellent experience training with ISM and is now a proud holder of one of their qualifications. All set to go again. Great instructors and super facilities.
The instructors here take their time and teach you properly, I highly recommend this place to anyone picking up any type of license for work etc.. 10/10 I will come back here when I need another in the future
I would like to share my review of an instructor, ADI MURRAY. My experience with him was far from satisfactory. Unfortunately, I found his teaching to be quite inadequate, resulting in a substantial waste of my time. The process of completing three classes that should have taken a month ended up dragging on for over five months. His excuse for the delay was consistently being busy, which left me rather dissatisfied with the overall experience.
Exelent Course. Good People. Very Competent Tutors, Interesting and Useful studying, Very Well trucks.
Overall great experience plus all the instructors very well managed us gave us great training and went through step by step with us there couldn't fault anything about the over all course but for the instructors mark the manager Carl Mick Brian Dennis excellecelt on how the managed everything id highly recommend going there to anyone who wants to up their tests and skill and can open up many more doors after. U completed it
Completed my RTITB forklift instructor renewal with John. All I can say was total professionalism from start to finish. All staff were brilliant to deal with and head instructor was a fountain of knowledge. High recommend.
Just finished my lessons and went straight into my driving test and passed first time round thanks to Murray! Without him I don't think I would have had the confidence to even book my test, I would highly recommend him to anybody looking to do their lessons. He has a very calm respectful and professional manner, he made me feel so comfortable and at ease!! ...
Very helpful, skilled and professional staff with great insights into forklift operations. I highly recommend ISM Tallaght to anyone setting out to get forklift certified.
Great teaching methods straight to the point and they get you straight into a job very fast. Thanks Mick,Mark,Carl and Brian for all your help.
Absolute gents to deal with sound bunch a lads to work with just watch out for that surprise cone behind you on observation

Big thanks lads and enjoyed the laughs
I recently completed the reduced EDT lessons with ISM driving school, and I must say it was quite a challenge for me, as I had not driven a manual car in four years. However, thanks to the excellent support from ISM, I was able to make a smooth transition. Ciaran, my instructor, was incredibly flexible and managed to schedule all my lessons in just three days, which expedited my learner's permit application process. After patiently waiting in the queue, I finally took my driving test at the Tallaght Test Center with the support of Ciaran's father. I'm thrilled to share that I passed the test on my first attempt! I want to express my sincere gratitude to ISM for their invaluable assistance.
Just about finished my 12 lessons with Murray and would 100% recommend him as a driving instructor, exceeded my expectations on my first driving lesson being able to drive back to work , he’s very patient and calm and it makes the lesson more comfortable Would really recommend him to someone starting outI will definitely be booking with him again for pre tests !!
I did my 12EDT class along with few extra class with Dave.Dave is really patient and understanding.He helped me to become an independent driver.
Just very professional excellent trainers and a very comfortable place for learning

Just finished my 12 EDT lessons with Murray. Had a very positive experience with this driving instructor. From the first lesson I could tell that Murray has years of experience in his field. He’s very patient and is a great teacher for anyone looking to get onto the road. I will definitely be coming back to book for pre-tests!
I did my 5 day course with the lads, it was my first course in english, but I chose the best place to do this. I'm basically a nervous person, especially if I have to take an exams, but my lucky was bigger than I thought, because these lads are very professional, and I got Carl who's fixed all my nervous problem with his humor and personality, and Mark as well. Thanks for everything, I became richer with a driver's license, which I passed the first time.
Hi guys at ISM tallaght Just finished a 2 week counterbalance forklift power pallet course at ISM tallaght training centre, I really enjoyed every minute of it excellent teaching . I will never forget the song TLC , It was a great experience, a huge thanks to Mark , Carl , and Mark,
Completed the Counterbalance, Reach and Power Pallet Forklift over a week ago with the lads at ISM. The instructors were absolute gentlemen. Mark, Carl, Brian and Ken were top class. Had Carl as my instructor for the Counterbalance Forklift and Brian as my instructor for the Reach Forklift. Both were informative, forgiving of mistakes and very direct and affable with advice and corrections. Ken graded me on my Counterbalance test and was lovely and very clear on my mistakes and Mark handled the Theory and Safety Procedures with great humor and effective teaching skills. Facilities were great also. Highly recommended, brilliant learning environment!
Many thanks to the staff of the ISM training center, during the 2 week forklift driving course they gave their best, explaining all the necessary details and maintaining confidence in their students. This team is top notch in what they do, special thanks to Mark and Brian.
Exceptional Forklift Operations Training Experience at ISM InstituteI recently completed a comprehensive 5-day forklift operations training course at ISM Institute, and I must say it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The instructors, Mark Slater and Mahoye, demonstrated exceptional expertise in their field and provided us with invaluable knowledge and skills.The training center facility at ISM Institute was truly impressive. It was well-maintained, equipped with state-of-the-art resources, and created a conducive learning environment. The spacious classrooms and practical training areas allowed us to practice various forklift maneuvers, ensuring we gained hands-on experience and confidence in our abilities.Mark Slater and Mahoye, our instructors, were the true stars of the program. Their professionalism, passion, and dedication were evident throughout the course. They took the time to explain complex concepts with clarity, ensuring that every participant understood the material. Their patience and approachability created a supportive atmosphere, making it easy to ask questions and seek clarification whenever needed.I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am for the knowledge and skills I gained during this training. Mark Slater and Mahoye's expertise and teaching methods surpassed my expectations. Their ability to effectively communicate and demonstrate proper forklift techniques was truly commendable.I would highly recommend ISM Institute for anyone seeking top-notch forklift operations training. The combination of outstanding instructors like Mark Slater and Mahoye, along with the excellent facility, ensures an unparalleled learning experience. Whether you are a beginner or looking to enhance your skills, ISM Institute will undoubtedly provide you with the necessary tools for success.Thank you, ISM Institute, for offering such a remarkable training program. Your commitment to excellence sets a standard that other institutions should strive to achieve. I wholeheartedly give ISM Institute a well-deserved five-star rating.
Just finished a 2 week forklift course with the lads in Tallagh ISM enjoyed every minute of it excellent guidance made to feel at ease on the machines . Huge thanks to Mark Brian John & the two Dave's passed all exams on each machine a credit to the lads who steered us in the right direction. Donuts were involved but not on the forklifts 🤣🍩
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*+
Really enjoyable experience. The instructors were very helpful in their instruction and with answering questions. Professional in their approach to the teaching of health and safety, when operating a forklift.I am more confident in myself as an operator and would like to thank the team for helping my progress."Handbreak, neutral"
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. Mairead
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.
Brilliant course, thanks a million to Mark, John and Brian for helping me get my counter balance licence, fantastic instructors and teaching techniques, anybody who takes this course will really enjoy it, thanks again lads 😎
Everything was so professional and easy to follow my instructor Mark Slater, such an easygoing person. I did 3 forklifts course. Thanks to all helpful staff! It was amazing!
