"Really enjoyed the course and the trainer managed to keep me engaged throughout. Explanations and training material were really good and it was great to be able to take these examples away as reminders."
Marie Kohler

Rebecca Gardner

Sarah Thrower
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"The course was great! Our trainer was very engaging and patient with questions and he was enthusiastic throughout the day. All the tips and tricks were so useful and I am certainly going to use these in my job going forward. I am also very grateful to him for spending half of the lunch break with me helping me with a macro problem on a workbook that I use in my job. He took to time to go through the macros with me and explained how they worked. It was beyond what he was meant to do but it has helped my team out hugely by fixing it. During the course it was clear our trainer had a great deal of knowledge of Excel but helping me with the macro problem was amazing and he clearly knows Excel very well. The course also came highly recommended from colleagues."

"Great course. Really personable trainer. Good content, delivered clearly."
Rachel Brown
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"I enjoyed the course and I thought that our trainer was fantastic. He delivered the training in a very structured manner and took the time to explain the use cases and context behind the different functions and formatting techniques. It was also great to bounce some personal excel issues off of him and get solutions."
Kieran Walton
Two Circles
"Apart from really enjoying the course, I did gain a lot of insight into how I currently use Excel and how I should use it. The course exercises are good to practice on."
Mike Walsh
Hyde Central Services Ltd
"Really liked our trainer who was a great explainer - keep it up!"
Benedict Summers
PwC
"Going into an excel course, I was a little hesitant and worried it would be too much information at once. However, our trainer was great from the get go. Very engaging, lots of small breaks in-between, felt I got lots of unanswered questions resolved and quick tricks to feel confident using the excel platform."
Aleisha Buckley-Henry
Mitsubishi Electric UK
"Great sessions, well paced, our trainer was great."
Akosua Bonsu
Southend-on-Sea City Council
"I was lucky enough to have 1 to 1 training. The trainer was so helpful, patient and I really learnt a lot. Also really enjoyed the course. The trainer simplified the commands and formulas in a way that no longer made me scared of excel!"
Mary Griffin
Network Plus
"Genuinely very good and entertaining course, Our teacher was great and the fact that he helped to incorporate where our own Excel Macros use certain coding techniques helped improve the course's relevance."
Jake Sirr
University College London
"The trainer was great. He explained the basics really clearly and was super helpful if we ever got stuck on something, and went at a good pace so that we could keep up without getting bored. The examples were both fun and relevant to the kinds of things we might want to do at work (like feeding information through from a pop-up box, error checking etc.). The course manual is also really impressive. I would definitely recommend this course."
