  • Clear and easy to understand tuition that taught not only the functionality of more advanced uses of Excel, but also the theory behind them so that a rounder understanding was achieved. I also learnt a lot of keyboard shortcuts that were new to me and will be helpful in speeding up various tasks.

  • This was such a great training. I didn’t have many expectations at the beginning, but I was very surprised when the lessons started. I use Excel every single day but thanks to this course I learnt new features I didn’t know of. Shortcuts, tips and tricks that are very important and make your day to day at work easier.

About the course: The service we receive is of the highest standards and a partnership approach proves successful in providing the training solutions for our business and our colleagues. We have the option to receive the training either on site or at The Software Training Company; this offers us flexibility in the number of colleagues we need to train, at any given time. All colleague feedback, without exception, is excellent demonstrating that the training we receive meets both the needs of the whole group, but also one-to-one time is spent with individuals where necessary.

I really appreciated that they have different approaches for everyone, because we all had different needs and learning styles.
