“I originally booked Pitman Training for my courses as the name is so well recognised by employers, also they have been around nearly 200 years and the training method is tried and tested.
I really liked the fact that I could fit the training in around my own life without the possibility of getting behind, or having to keep up with other learners. I had a tutor via headphones and a very comprehensive work book for each individual course. You can work through the course very easily as it is so easy to follow being step by step, also there was a training supervisor always on hand whenever I needed help to ensure that you understand, which is great!
I have also completed some courses within the training centre, as well as completed some at home via the Pitman distance learning system, which is simple to follow as it works exactly the same way as if I was going in the centre, however when I was really busy in my life, I could then learn at the evenings and at weekends.
I have learnt lots and lots of computer skills including Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint and Outlook. There is so much within each package and I have learnt everything to an intermediate standard which I have seen help lots of people get jobs as it is the standard of training and the certificates and diploma that make the CV stand out from the crowd.
I have found the Pitman Training Microsoft Diploma 2010 courses both enjoyable and easy to follow, considering how daunting it was for me at first. However, Dawn, the Centre Manager constantly believed in me and gave me the confidence to believe in myself and has consistently motivated me not to give up. It has all really been worth it.
The style of training is brilliant and I would highly recommend it to anyone. I am really glad I followed it through and, this is a new beginning for me.”
