Remote OptionIn order to join a remote session, delegates do not need their own licence for Office365, Teams or Web-ex. The only requirements are solid internet access, a Chromium Browser such as Google Chrome or the new Microsoft Edge browser, a quiet place to learn from or a headset with microphone.No downloads or additional software is required. If you would like to test compatibility ahead of the session, we can arrange a 15-minute test with one of our trainers.

Tailor MadeEach short session is very hands-on and practical. We can incorporate your files into the class to maximise the relevance of each point covered. Although our sessions are pacey, there is still plenty of opportunity to ask questions.

Mix and MatchIf you would prefer to create your own unique lesson, you can mix & match topics from across this catalogue. When you send us your requirements, we can then calculate how long the lesson will be and we can give you a quote.
