Testimonials

Handelsbanken

I am very impressed with the training. My access skills are very much self taught and I was unsure about whether the level of the course would be right. The training was delivered in a really clear manner and at the right pace. Thank you very much to Richard for the course. I would thoroughly recommend it.

Blaby District Council

"I found the training session really interesting as I use Access daily and had no idea on how much it actually can do. Simon is a fantastic trainer and takes his time explaining all the background so you get to understand better, he is thorough and has the patience of a saint. I would highly recommend anyone considering this training to consider going booking Simon and his team."

"Our bespoke training was really good and invaluable. We learnt a great deal about Microsoft Access and databasing techniques. Both aspects are so important to our work. Simon, our trainer, was a real expert and he made the two days interesting and enjoyable. Thank you so much"
