New Course Builder - Bespoke Excel Courses

Do you want people in your organisation to get more from Excel? Hopefully one of our Public Scheduled courses will meet your needs but if not, we can create a Bespoke Excel Course with the aid of our Excel Course Builder, creating the right course for you that can be delivered in group sessions either through our Virtual Classroom or onsite at your company premises.

This simple to use table (created in Excel) means that all the modules from all our 4 levels of Excel courses are broken down into sections, including the duration of each module.  Companies can then pick the modules that would be most beneficial to them by selecting them on the course builder until they have a course of the right content and duration for them.

This information is then reviewed by one of our Excel Training Specialists to ensure that the course will flow and that pre-requisite modules are not missing to ensure that the course is effective and delivers what your organisation needs.

To find out more information on this and how it would benefit your organisation, please contact us at enquiries@skilltec.co.uk or call one of our team on 01752 227330 to discuss your particular requirement and how this may help you.
