What was the most frightening moment of your life?
Moving into our new training facilities in Boucher Crescent. Jim started JMD Training in March 2010, I joined the company in October 2010. And some family and friends thought we were mad to leave two payee jobs to open up a business in a recession. We have never been afraid of hard work so it was a case of its now or never. I knew JMD Training could offer a cost effective and quality training service. And as our business has continued to grow I think our customers must agree.
