Akai - from full time Mum to Accounts Assistant

Courses completed:

ECDL, Typing, Sage Accounts & Payroll

Job secured:

Accounts Assistant, architectural firm

“After 15 years as a full-time Mum to two daughters I decided it was time to go back to work in accounting, which seemed preferable to becoming a full-time chauffeur service for teenage girls! But how? It looked like a daunting task. I was going to have to learn how to do more than turn on the computer to do my on-line shopping and e-mail friends. This is where Alison and her fabulous team came to the rescue. It took them a year (part-time) to get me IT literate by doing ECDL, typing to 40 wpm and now I'm confident as an accountant again after doing Sage Accounts and Sage Payroll. Not only that, Alison helped me to do my CV and coached me into being a confident interviewee. Alison even spotted the Accounts Assistant job at a firm of architects that I have just succeeded in getting. A BIG THANK YOU”
