QA provides a comprehensive range of desktop courses ranging from the standard Microsoft Office suite to other applications such as Project, FrontPage, Publisher and Visio.
Tailored solutions
We train many thousands of delegates each year in how to be more
productive with Microsoft Office. Whatever your company needs,
whether it be classroom based training, floor walking, a customised
solution to suit your organisation, or flash cards, we at QA have
the experience and skills to help you.
Floor-walking is becoming an increasingly popular solution for our
clients. Our trainers will be available at your site to answer
questions at the user’s desk. This system can help to reduce the
day-to-day requests of a company’s IT helpdesk, as the trainer
solves the problems directly.
We also offer extensive TNA (Training Needs Analysis) services
ensuring that delegates are attending exactly the right course for
their skill level and requirements. Contact us for further details.
