Response: Hi Norma...there should have been water available to you throughout the day and am sure tea and coffee would have been available on request. Apologies if that was not the case. Sorry to see your experience was not up to our usual standard, we take feedback like this very seriously and will be addressing the issues you raised

Aside from catering the course was superb and the trainer was superb

Response: Thank you for the feedback, Natasha, and we are sorry to hear about the issues with the room. We have flagged this up to the landlord and put measures in place to make sure this isn't repeated.

I feel I have benefited from this course which was run in a clear and informative manner. I look forward to recieving the literature relevant to the course, as advised on Friday.

I really enjoyed the course on Friday 27th January 16. Callum was very helpful, established what we were looking for at the start of the day and ensured he covered everything we wanted. He encouraged interaction between all of the students where I was able to gain some handy tips from other users. Although I have a good understanding of Excel, I feel that the course has filled in some gaps and expanded on my knowledge, I now feel more confident in particular around formulae.

Brian was very knowledgeable on the subject with a good mixture of common sense. However, I would have liked a risk assessment.

Response: Thank you Alison, we will pass your kind comments on to Brian. Delighted to hear the course went well

Paul was an excellent trainer and new the subject matter very well. The details of his experiences were comforting to know that presentation skills can be developed. Using examples of individuals in news headlines made it easier to understand certain presentation styles. The facilities were ok, but the room was cold for most of the morning but a good size for the number on the course. With the booking process we had some difficulty getting the discount for multiple attendees, but the team were very helpful any time I got in contact.
