What our clients say
A great course delivered by Lisa, impossible to fault the enthusiasm, passion and knowledge she has for the course and everyone’s learning. Perfect for anyone wanting to improve their ability and knowledge of SharePoint whilst learning how other apps support or assist.
The training was really helpful, I have learned a lot during these two days and I feel comfortable using and navigating around Sharepoint. The trainer has been amazing, super friendly, helpful, patient and fun. A great week training with Lisa!!
Scott tailored the course based on our needs. He was very flexible in his approach to the training and we all feel as though we got a lot out of the sessions.
Stuart is a great trainer, and I would have loved to do this training in person rather than online. One day perhaps!
Scott is a very knowledgeable trainer. He knows his stuff and has a very pleasant way of teaching others. He is patient, clear in his explanations and has a good sense of humour. He always goes above and beyond what can be expected of a trainer. It is a pleasure to attend his courses.
Lisa was a fabulous trainer, really helpful, and took the time to answer all questions, and provide applicable examples and / or demonstrations as required. She really helped me to understand a lot of the elements I had self-taught, and has given me a further understanding of how SharePoint interacts, and associated best practice techniques.
