Great introductory course to Macros. Susan is a very good teacher and made it very easy to follow. Class size was ideal so we could all ask questions to help us fully understand what we were doing. I’d definitely recommend the course to my colleagues. The Beehive is a stunning building! Class room space was perfect for our group. The reception lady was very friendly too.

I would recommend the course, it was very well structured. Brief demonstration by Susan on Excel followed by practice exercises straight after was definitely a good approach to better understanding and applying the freshly learned skill. Susan is very friendly and knowledgeable. Susan is very energetic, communicative and involved. She made the course easy to digest and time passed quickly. The structure, the size of the group so the teacher was very engaged with us and could answer all the questions.

Daria, Willis Towers Watson

I would recommend the course, easy to follow at a good pace.

Jessica, Gatwick Airport Ltd

Very good overview and insight into macros. Ron was fantastic. He broke it down to easy to understand sections, Ron showed examples of how it can work day to day.

James, Tokyo Electron

I would recommend it, very experienced trainer and good curriculum of the training. Breaking the course into sessions of three hours per day was really excellent as this allows to do the daily work and also not to overload with information on one day. The combination of lecture and exercises was really good. Yes I would recommend virtual training especially for software trainings it was good to see the other students’ screens.
