"At all times Mr. Spencer has shown the utmost professionalism
in the manner in which he trains and places his Butlers. Mr. Spencer's
very good name and School precede him, and anyone who has had
the pleasure of meeting him or has had any dealings with his School
will know this.
Since I completed my course with Mr. Spencer in January 1990,
he has arranged superb jobs for me. My position here in the U.S.A.
was arranged by Mr. Spencer, and I can say that I have never been
happier. The facilities and conditions are excellent, and I know
I have Mr. Spencer to thank inasmuch as he plays a very large
part in obtaining the very best conditions for his trained Butlers.
I can only sing the praises of the Ivor Spencer Butler Course
and say that anyone who decides to take it will have a sound grounding
in the art of personal services and that the Diploma will open
many doors for them.
I send my warmest regards to Ivor."

Dear Ivor,
Further to your request, please find enclosed, six copies of both
my and my wife's Curriculum Vitae. I have also enclosed copies
of relevant references and certificates. I do hope that all is
in order.
May I take this opportunity of, once again, thanking both yourself
and Don for the course, I found it fascinating. I have spent most
of my working life in catering, and a great deal of time working
in five star hotels. I now feel that I am trained to a 'ten star'
standard.
Yours sincerely,
Martin R Justin - U.K.

The attendance of the Ivor Spencer International School for Butler
Administrations was an exceptional enrichment of my life. I passed through many
schools, i achieved a university degree, but this was the most impressive one.
I met both an outstanding principle, Ivor, and an excellent teacher, Mr. Ashley
Powell. Teaching as well as our visits to well-known shops or department
stored were unique experiences. The variety of the curriculum makes me
feel prepared for tasks to follow. I look ahead very optimistic. Last
but not the least I should like to mention my fellow students. They are
such wonderful people who I will never forget and who I should love to meet
again. |

I am delighted to say that I have trained Peter McGuinness at
my School who was Head Butler at the Lanesborough Hotel, and
he was in charge of thirty Butlers. The Lanesborough is a first-class
hotel in London. Peter is now a manager of a very exclusive London hotel
