Lynchpin Training is not just good - it’s GREAT !!! We’ve been with them since 2016 with introduction of VAT in UAE and joined their trainings ever since. Highly recommended, regards.
An excellent session, very well prepared, trainer had excellent grasp of the subject which was explained very well to the participants. A must attend session for anyone who wants to get prepared for the upcoming UAE Corporate Tax regime effectively coming by June 2023.
I want to thank Lynchpin training center and my trainer Mr. Mirza for an excellent job. He is a very talented, kind and excellent teacher who loves his job and share his experience with me. I'm grateful for the opportunity.
