The trainer was clear, knowledgeable, and engaging. They explained everything well and made the session easy to follow and understand.
Penn was very interactive and explained the concepts of Excel very clearly and was funny with a good sense of humour !
I probably should have gone for the level3 course, but I did learn a few things, and the refresher on some things I haven't used for a while was beneficial.... Instructor was great!
Wayne displayed amazing knowledge and was a fantastic instructor for this course. I have learnt many valuable skills and am looking forward to attending the next course!
Wayne is a solid trainer who is extremely knowledgeable and very familiar with how to teach people.
Martin was a great instructor that kept a good pace, looked for examples that would specifically help class members, and made us all feel at ease. Was a really great learning environment!
A very well run course Martin delivered a lot of information in an easy to grasp manner, keeping it interesting and relevant.
Thank you very much Martin for an extremely informative day. I did find it a bit difficult sitting in the back seat, so my hearing or vision did not help me, but I appreciated the individual help that you provided so generously. I learnt a huge amount during the day.
Excellent course, very valuable information that reflected the work that I do and filled in the gaps for me. also, the right amount of humour/banter from Adam the trainer.
Very useful, easy to understand and follow along for the day. Expected to get a little lost due to it being such a long day, but Adam was amazing with answering any questions and making sure to check in to see if any of us needed help or a recap on what we had just been taught. As well as Adam doing the tasks along side us showing us what the formulas should look like helped a lot and made it easier to make sure i was on the right track.
Michael Penn- you were made for this role- you made this fun, insightful and very educational :) Happy soon to be 60th Birthday!! (You don't look a day over 40) :D Thank you so very much!
I have found this course extremely helpful. I am also excited to start using excel instead of being scared. Thank you so much, Wayne.
