Course Administration
Q: What facilities do I need to run a
course in-house?
A: You only need to provide us with
a room that has desks, chairs, and power. We provide the
rest.
If you don't have a suitable room,
just let us know and we can recommend a third-party training
facility.
Q: Can you help me organise an in-house
course?
A: Yes! We provide you with our free,
helpful guide entitled
"Running a Successful In-house Course" (Word | PDF) .
This contains lots of great information
on how to promote the course internally, get the right people on the course and checklists
to help you organise everything so your course runs smoothly
and participants get maximum benefit from attending.
Our Course Coordinator will also be
in contact with you at regular times before the course
to ensure everything is ready.
If you need additional help or have
any questions, just call or e-mail us.
Courses
Q: How are your courses different to the
general Introductory, Intermediate and Advanced Excel
courses run by other training companies?
A: Most general courses focus on Excel's
functionality. Our courses are different in several ways:
- We go beyond explaining just the
functionality and focus on applying the knowledge gained
to solve the types of issues Finance and Accounting
staff typically face on a day-to-day basis.
- We provide courses in many niche
areas that are important to Finance and Accounting staff
but aren't usually covered in general courses eg Workbook
Structure, Productivity etc.
- Many of our courses provide training
in the principles of Finance, Accounting, and Excel
eg Financial Modelling. These would not normally be
covered in general courses.
Q: Why are your in-house courses limited
to 7 participants?
A: We find this is the optimum number
to provide participants with maximum attention from the
course facilitator and thereby gain the greatest benefit
from the training session.
Q: Do you only provide training for Finance
and Accounting staff?
A: We focus on Finance and Accounting
staff since this is our background and we have significant
experience in this area.
However we also have a number of clients
where we train Engineers, HR staff, Administrative staff
and others.
Q: Why don't you offer more courses to
the public?
A: Our main focus is business-to-business
so we tend to run most courses for businesses in-house.
Q: I'm in a small business that doesn't
have the staff to run an in-house course but I'd like
to attend. What can I do?
A: If you get a few colleagues together,
we'd be happy to run a course for your group.
Travel
Q: Can you provide your courses outside
Perth, WA?
A: Yes! We currently run courses for
clients throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
Q: What additional costs are there if
we get you to run a course for us outside Perth, WA?
A: The course fees listed apply to
clients in the Perth metropolitan area.
Any travel costs are extra: taxis,
airfares, accommodation, meals etc.
Airfares: economy if less than 8 hours
otherwise business class.
Accommodation: minimum 4 star.
Q: Do you charge for travelling time?
A: There is no charge for travelling
time provided the one-way total trip is less than 12 hours
and the course either starts on a Monday or finishes on
a Friday.
Training

Q: Are you happy to provide your courses

of training companies throughout the world on this basis.

see us working together.
