I have started the Microsoft Word 2007 Module. I had never realised the amount of quick shortcuts in MS Word! It truly has opened my eyes and indeed shortened the time required in completing various tasks. It’s so great to advance my skills through home study, I hope to sit my exam soon and look forward to gaining my first Certificate with Pitman Training!

Hello
I was absolutely delighted when Pitman told me I had been selected as their Bursary competition winner for Galway as part of ‘Go Get That Job Week’. I am looking forward to working hard with the challenges this course will provide and to achieve new skills. I am grateful again for this opportunity as in this climate of recession we have to push ourselves forward to fulfil our dreams.
