Our new offering of first class IT training programmes are built by the leading technology vendors and are delivered nationwide by a highly qualified team of IT trainers. Having trained and prepared apprentices to pass vendor certifications, such as CompTIA A+ and Microsoft MCTS Windows 7, we consider ourselves specialists in certification preparation. Consequently we have put together certification bundles which are competitively priced and aimed at getting people trained in the real world. We appreciate that one size does not fit all and will work with organisations to deliver flexible, effective training that meets specific requirements. The courses are offered in 30 locations throughout the country, making the training sessions easily accessbile. In addition, we are able to offer private or customised courses to our customers at their own locations if they have suitable resources in house.
