(3.90 out of 5) Dani P [ 02 August, 2021 ]
This course helped to provided explanations around concepts that I have acquired through being self taught
(4.30 out of 5) Benjamin S [ 02 August, 2021 ]
Clive answered all questions from the students and ensured that everyone understood the course material at every checkpoint. He also ensured that we were challenged and took away valuable insights from the course. I would recommend any course with Clive.
(4.60 out of 5) Israel M [ 23 June, 2021 ]
Great course. The most valuable thing for me was getting familiar with the geography of the VBA interface.
(5.00 out of 5) Robert [ 10 May, 2021 ]
There were only 2 of us in the course. Daniel was able to customise the course to cater to us, and ask us questions as well as answer our questions. I was worried I would be bored and struggle to concentrate, but it was quite engaging.
