Instructor-led Microsoft 365, Copilot, Excel, management and business skills training, delivered across Greater Manchester for over 20 years.

Train at your own offices, at our Manchester venues, or live online. Every course is tailored before the day: we ask what your team actually needs, adapt the content to your real documents and scenarios, and match a trainer who knows your sector. Fees are charged per day for the group rather than per delegate, and post-course support is included.
We bring the trainer and materials to you, anywhere in Greater Manchester: Salford, Stockport, Trafford, Bolton, Oldham, Bury, Rochdale, Wigan and Tameside. Usually the most cost-effective option, as trainer travel is included in the fee.
Fully equipped training rooms at Salford Quays and in Manchester city centre, both a short walk from Metrolink and mainline stations. Ideal when you would rather your team trained away from the office.
The same trainer and the same tailored content, delivered over Microsoft Teams in small groups or one to one. Useful for hybrid teams or where people are spread across several Manchester sites.
The Digital World Centre in Salford Quays is located adjacent to Media City less than two miles from Manchester city centre and provides some of the highest quality serviced offices in Manchester. The Metrolink tram service stops just a few minutes’ walk from the centre. (MediaCity)

Courses are priced as a day rate for the whole group rather than per delegate, so the cost per person falls as the group grows.

Call 0345 450 0051 or send an enquiry and we will come back with a fixed quote, usually the same day.
Most one-day courses work best with up to eight to twelve delegates, depending on the subject. Smaller groups, one to one coaching and split sessions across two half-days are all available.
