We present courses to companies (corporate sector) and to private individuals and our courses can be presented one-on-one or to groups of 2-25 people. Most courses are presented to small groups (5 or less students) to ensure that students receives personal attention. We specialize in computer training for school-leavers, office workers, managers, IT Career students or anyone else who needs to enhance their IT skills. The courses are aimed at providing the student in a short span of time with the basic skills required to start using the application software. Our classes are instructor led. The main advantage of an instructor led training is that the student gets to interact with the instructor, ask questions, and ask for further explanation when things are not clear. Classes also offer a more structured environment. Many people find it easier training in this type of environment compared to learning by themselves.
