Program Reviews
From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and custom-crafted curriculum, we deliver results our alumni are proud of.
-
Vincent Ty was patient, gave duplicate examples and went at a pace of which onsite and Zoom participants could follow. For the first time shortcuts and quick access along can become a part of my usage. I like original usage 100%, but having shortcuts and quick access lends to production time.
-
The Intermediate-Advanced Word class with Mike was terrific! A lot of hands on exercises and very helpful tips.
-
Excellent classes for all levels of users. Very applicable
-
Very comprehensive. Even if you've been using Word for years, you'll gain some tips of the trade (:
-
There is much more to know than what we think we already know. This class for sure showed it.
-
I've been using Microsoft Word for years. This class unearthed a lot of great tips for me that I did not know were available. Instructor is very knowledgeable and helpful.
-
Microsoft Office Word Level 1 was a great class to take, I highly recommend enrolling in this class. I was familiar with the content but I honestly learned much more in this class with Mike.
-
The online experience on Zoom was better than I could've expected. Don't let the absence of the classroom create an absence of an education.
-
Practical application, Real life scenarios, patient instructor
-
I learned a lot from my class. I was surprised by how much I didn't know after using the program for years. The instructor (Thomas) was fantastic, very engaging and knowledgeable.
-
I attended Microsoft Word Levels 1 & 2 with Mike Green as the instructor. He is a very friendly and knowledgeable person and answered all questions promptly and completely to my satisfaction. Without any reservation I will recommend his services to anyone.
-
Mike Green was an absolutely wonderful teacher who is obviously an expert in both Microsoft word and excel. He was able to explain difficult concepts in an understandable manner and gave me a real confidence boost in only a day's worth of teaching instruction. I recommend Mr. Green to any pupil who wants to learn either complicated or simple Microsoft concepts quickly and in a relaxed atmosphere.
-
I took the Word course with Karen and she was terrific. It was like having a personal tutor as she addressed many of the specific problems I had in working with Word vs. WordPerfect. For the first time I understood how various aspects of Word work.
-
The Word class I took with Karen was great. There was no pressure and she took her time with me. I also met client manager, who helped schedule the class. Very sweet. Both were very helpful. It was a great refresher. I look forward to taking the Excel class.
