We work on a bespoke, requirements-led basis rather than offer a set range of courses. We will work with you to identify your specific requirements and objectives before any training is delivered. That way you can be sure that training will always deliver exactly what you’re looking to achieve.
All our on site IT training courses are delivered at our customers’ premises. Not only does that avoid any travel inconvenience for your team, but also it means we don’t have the overheads required to maintain a dedicated training centre – and in turn we are able to pass these savings on to you.
Our trainers have designed and delivered online IT training for a wide range of organisations and people including accountants, lawyers, data analysts, sales consultants and buyers. Clients benefit from our our ability to find creative solutions to their problems based on many years of experience.
“I am so pleased I allowed myself the time to come to this course. I am now confident I can sort out my overly complicated spreadsheets and actually understand the data and use it effectively. Thank you so much!”

-->“IT Training and enthusiasm do not often go hand in hand, but Jane has achieved it! The trainees leaving the sessions with Jane have all said how useful the sessions have been and with big smiles and thumbs up all round. Many are already asking for more and can’t wait to see Jane back again. Thanks Jane!”

With the Details View in Project, you can easily move between tasks and resources, viewing details about them. I find that this is a huge time saver as I don’t need to switch views as the details can be displayed at the bottom of the screen. Here are some examples of the type of information you can view:
