If you need training for 3 or more people, you should ask us about onsite training. Putting aside the obvious location benefit, content can be customised to better meet your business objectives and more can be covered than in a public classroom. Its a cost effective option. One on one training can be delivered too, at reasonable rates.
Submit an enquiry from any page on this site and let us know you are interested in the requirements box, or simply mention it when we contact you.
