Testimonial:

“I found the booking procedures really flexible, all you need to do is call and arrange a time to come in and study. I always felt welcome whenever I came into the training centre. The staffs were all very helpful and the course content was perfect. I hardly recognise myself now, I have achieved so much! I am particularly proud of the four distinction grades I received, and the fact I can now touch type a 42 words per minute. My favourite subject was Microsoft Word Expert, I found it really challenging” - Adelajda
