Computer Training in Cambridge

Onsite, live online and focused 90-minute courses

Practical IT training for Cambridge teams who need useful skills without losing momentum. We can deliver training at your workplace, live online for staff across the area, or as focused short sessions in Excel, Power BI, Microsoft 365, Adobe and Copilot. Cambridge is a city shaped by research, education and fast-moving organisations, so the course is built around real workplace needs rather than generic examples.

Equipment

If you want training in Cambridge, the course needs to fit the way your team actually works. Cambridge is a city shaped by research, education and fast-moving organisations, so we help you get the room, software, laptops and course material ready before the session starts.

  • Software-Ready Laptops: No need to worry about setting up equipment. We can provide laptops pre-installed with the software needed for the course, so your team can start learning straight away.
  • Cheat Sheet Handouts: Each participant receives clear, practical notes to reinforce the key points during and after the training.
  • Training That Fits Your Setup: We can deliver the course at your office, live online, or at a suitable local venue depending on what works best for your team.

If you prefer to use your own laptops, that is fine too. Training on your own systems can make the session even more relevant, especially when your team needs help with real files, reports or internal processes.

From Home

Not everyone needs to travel across Cambridge for training. If your team is spread around the Science Park, Addenbrooke's, Ely, Newmarket and Huntingdon, or trying to avoid extra travel through Cambridge station, Cambridge North and the A14, live online training gives you the same tutor-led support without losing the local focus.

  • Easy Online Access: Sessions can be delivered via Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, making it simple for everyone to join from home, the office or another site.
  • Interactive and Personalised: Delegates can ask questions, share screens and work through examples with the trainer rather than just watching a recording.
  • Digital Course Notes: We can provide digital guides and follow-up resources, so learners have something useful to return to after the session.
  • No Travel Hassles: Online training is often the easiest option when diaries are tight or your team works across several locations.

Whether your learners are based in Cambridge or nearby areas such as the Science Park, Addenbrooke's, Ely, Newmarket and Huntingdon, the aim is the same: practical training that helps people do their work with more confidence.

"The training was brilliant. Went at my own pace. Simon answered all my questions and concentrated on teaching me the things I use the most at my work (or possibly may need in future). A very happy customer! Thank you!"
Cambridge Flow Solutions
"The training day has taught me a lot about the basics of InDesign. It was great that the course was tailored to our needs and we could ask specific questions regarding our current marketing materials. Thanks so much!"
