A quick look at the job adverts for secretarial and admin positions will confirm the popularity of this advanced database programme which forms part of the MS Office suite.
You'll need to dedicate 25-30 hours of study at our comfortable training centre to master the programme, enhancing your employability all the while.
You can invest your learning time however you wish, studying daytimes, evenings or Saturdays or a blend of all three!
Some people study full-time for a few days, others dip in and out on an irregular basis to suit the other demands on their time.
The choice is yours!
