TRAINING

We offer high quality but relatively low cost training at your offices anywhere in the UK, using our own dedicated trainers.

As an alternative, we offer live training over the internet - we can connect our pc to yours using the web. This is a very effective low cost and you can run short courses at any time of the day, even out of hours or at home at night or the weekends. All you need is an internet connection (not dialup) and a phone with loud speaker. Should you wish to include several people, then you can project your pc onto a screen or you can gather several people around a pc and you would need a speaker phone. The technology only allows us to connect to one pc at your end.

Cost for live training via the web starts at £250 plus VAT (minimum 2 hours) and thereafter £125 plus VAT per hour.

Training at your offices can be half or full day. For a group of 2-3 persons, full day courses start from £525 plus travel & accommodation.
