Advanced Computer Training

 

 

What courses are available?

The Tell Organisation offers advanced computer training for each of the four major Microsoft Office applications – Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access.  These courses will help candidates to make use of the most powerful features of these computer packages.  By the end of the training, candidates will be able to use:

·         Word: to work with complex documents, create Forms and use a range of tools to automate their work

·         Excel: to use spreadsheets for analysing important statistics and produce targeted reports

·         PowerPoint: to prepare dynamic presentations for use in a variety of contexts

·         Access: to create complex databases that are customised to the specific needs of your business

 

Why Tell?

Tell has delivered a wide range of computer training courses over the last 16 years and we recognise that employees could make much better use of the computer equipment on their desks, if only they were aware of the features of their software and how they can be used to provide effective management information more quickly.

 

These advanced computer training programmes are delivered in small groups, so that candidates receive an appropriate amount of support during the training.  What’s more we provide a free follow-up session (that can, if appropriate, be delivered on your premises), so that we can be sure your employee is putting all the good things learned on the course into practice.  Productivity savings from efficient use of computers can be significant, and this is the target of our training.  Following these courses, your employees produce better quality documents in much less time and this, therefore, reduces your costs.

 

Who is it for?

These courses are aimed at computer users who already use the relevant software package, but who recognise that they could be making better use of it.  It is not appropriate for beginners.
