Training companies are often seen as “one size fits all” centres, making sure you buy what they want to sell, not necessarily the same as what you need.
Lightning Training is different.
We work hard to provide you with training content that is relevant to your organisations training need. It’s a strategy which pays off, as our customers return again and again for this service.
By using Training Needs Analysis and consultation we listen to what you want, and advise you appropriately. Once you have decided on the right solution for your organisation, we then support you every step of the way, before, during and after the training has taken place.
All courses include materials for you to use both on the day, and as reference after the event. Any Microsoft training uses approved courseware which is aligned to the Microsoft Business Certification programme.
Microsoft Office Applications Training

From Office 2010 to Office 2003, beginner to expert, Excel to Visio, we have a course to suit you. We”ll assess your existing skills and provide you with an extensive report of our findings, along with some recommendations. The choice is then up to you. You can decide to try one of our listed courses, or combine the elements involved to produce a bespoke course for you.
