The [Productivity Tips and Tricks in Microsoft Word – Online] course was well laid out with excellent course materials.  The presenter made every effort to ensure that his descriptions and  comments were clear.  We were not rushed while we were practising various procedures.

[VBA for the Non-programmer online live workshop] The material covered in each session 1 – 4 was just the right amount of information. The Excel exercises were very well developed. There were a number of tasks so that slower students like myself can spend more time on Task 1 and faster students can do Task 2, Task 3, Task 4, and sometimes an Advanced Task. The VBA Syntax needs to show each part of the statement more clearly. I think if the formating was done differently, the VBA Syntax will stand out clearer on the page. Maybe put a box around the VBA Syntax.

We contracted with Paul to conduct two days of training one week apart and cover all levels of Excel. He customized the program for us and we were very impressed with the handouts and preloaded excel sheets to work on. Paul made the days interesting and the feedback from the attendees was excellent! This was quite an accomplishment as most of the participants use Excel for specific reporting purposes and Paul was able to pull it together for everyone. We would highly recommend Paul to anyone thinking of Excel training, these sessions were excellent!  Director of Operations, Merit Loyalty Services, Mississauga.

[VBA for the Non Programmer] Subject matter is tricky – hence my enrolment – but so far, course has gone well and I understand more than I did before taking it.

[Productivity Tips and Tricks in Excel – 2 hour online live workshop] All of the tips provided were surprisingly new for me. I thought I knew alot about Excel but this instructor made me realize there is tons of things I don’t know. I will be hanging on to this training material so I can get alot of use out of these tips for excel – especially linking documents from excel to word or powerpoint.
