Comments and Testimonials

Chamber of Commerce – Excel training for ISO

JPL IT Training provided Excel training for ISO at the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Chamber of Commerce. The course was Intermediate Excel and 10 people attended and gave us great feedback on their Linked In profile.
John Legge has been an absolute dream of a trainer and made it so engaging that we didn’t even notice how the evening came!
Safe to say that we now know all about Fn button (and yes, we love it) and Control + Strange Button! Most of us had a very basic knowledge of Excel and we have definitely gained an in-depth knowledge and learned a lot that we haven’t known before!

John delivered the session in a relaxed manner. He ensured that all abilities were catered for and that people were learning at their own pace.
For the employees that needed a little more time, they did not feel pressured to move on and for the employees that were a little more advanced, John demonstrated some great tips and tricks!!
The day sessions were interesting, enjoyable and well planned. We can totally recommend this course and have booked for future intermediate training and an advanced bespoke course.

Ashorne Hill – Training staff in Excel, Word and PowerPoint

Excellent training delivery, courses being small in numbers worked very well for our staff, giving them time for any additional questions/content.
Smooth process from start to finish and excellent that trainers could provide individual laptops for staff that didn’t have their own.
Very informative training – we like the fact we can keep notes to refer back to while at work
