In 2010, Management Training, Microsoft Upgrade Training, PRINCE2 Training, ITIL Training, Business Development Skills Training and Technical Training were our most popular subject areas. This is why:-
Management Training – Well-trained managers can not only create a targeted and motivated team, but are a great defence against employment tribunals. All our management courses include the most up-to-date information providing your senior staff with the right tools to make the right decisions in your organisation – see Essential Tools for Managers
IT Technical Training – Many organisations, large or small, rely heavily on computer systems in all areas of their business and even in the decision making process. Failure of these systems can lead to the complete inability of your organisation to deliver your products and/or services therefore it is extremely important that your technical IT staff are well-equipped to deal with these incidents – see Windows Server 2008 Administration and New Features – MCDST
PRINCE2 Training, PRINCE2 Courses – Projects IN Controlled Environments (PRINCE) is a project management method. PRINCE2 is the standard method for project management and embodies established and proven best practice governance for project management. Although most PRINCE2 training courses are delivered with the certification in mind, we also, where possible, weave in examples of how you can put this knowledge to use when returning to your workplace – see PRINCE2 Foundation, PRINCE2 Practitioner
ITIL Training, ITIL Courses – IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) has been implemented by thousands of organisations worldwide and adopting ITIL offers a vast range of benefits including an improvement in IT services for your organisation, a reduction in costs, a consistent professional approach to services, better productivity and a better use of skills and experience – see ITIL Foundation V3
Microsoft Training – Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access – In the computer world, changes happen and upgrades are released frequently. Therefore users must adapt and acquire new skills to enable them to keep pace with their workflow. As new versions and upgrades appear on your desktop, you need to be able to produce the same, if not better, than before. Microsoft Upgrade training, as well as standard Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Access training courses are available to help you keep pace – see Access, Word, Excel, Microsoft Office Upgrade Course, PowerPoint, Outlook Introduction, Outlook Advanced

Top 7 signs of a ‘Good’ Boss
(not necessarily in this order)
Recent research produced by the Chartered Management Institute and Penna along with Henley Business School, says that only approximately 57% of managers consider their line managers to be effective.
So, we thought we’d produce our own short list of what we think constitutes the top 7 signs of a ‘good’ boss.
See if you agree?
You encourage employees in your team to do well - You see employees in your team doing a job well and you tell them so.
The employee is likely to repeat that behaviour and you are building on the skills that you want to encourage.
You’re not afraid to reward - You know that rewards are not just monetary and that a simple ‘thank you’ for a job well done will work wonders. Some organisations promote an ‘employee of the month/week/day’ and although you may think it sounds trivial, the competitive spirit amongst work colleagues in this way can inspire others to be the best next month/week/day.
You listen - It is well documented that bad bosses rarely listen. You, as a good boss, always do.
It’s the face-to-face contact that is important. Listening to an employee’s viewpoint (which you may or may not agree with) is investing in people as individuals and makes them feel valued. Meeting people’s emotional needs also encourages them to go the extra mile for you.
You are fair - You are a good boss and treat people fairly. You know the difference between treating people fairly and treating them equally. We are all different. We don’t all want the same things. What you want and what your employees want from their job are different too. You may wish to attend the annual conference in Switzerland. Someone else may want time off to go to their child’s summer sports day. You may want a different office chair. Someone else may want to do a marketing qualification. Treating people fairly is not about treating them equally.
Working for you can be fun - We’ve all heard the saying ‘work hard, play hard’ and you know that people come to work for all sorts of reasons, money is just one. Fun and humour increase employee’s ability to cope with stress and to remain creative and innovative under pressure.
People are not afraid to ask you for help - You know that everyone who makes a decision will make a mistake and that we learn from our mistakes. Your employees value the chance and are motivated by the trust you put in them to do their job well. The reality is that we all make mistakes and shouting at people will kill workplace productivity. If employee’s feel like they are constantly being reprimanded, they’ll avoid you if there’s ever a problem.
You garner respect - You lead and set a great example. Your vision is well communicated and you know how to get your employees to buy into that vision. You are a leader who respects and empowers each member of their workforce.
At the end of the day, YOUR success will be determined by your team.
