IT Training Courses
These courses are developed to support beginners, intermediate and advanced learners. Open courses run with a
minimum of four delegates. In-house training group sizes should preferably not be more than 8 delegates (but we are flexible!).
Before a course runs, delegates will be asked to complete a questionnaire and indicate areas that they need to
improve skills in; courses will be developed to suit the needs of the delegates. Contact us to discuss your needs.
We use a number of superbly-equipped training centres in the Portsmouth area, selected for their facilities, ease of access and pleasantness of environment.
On full-day courses lunches are provided and refreshments are always included.
