Sheila’s Success Journey
Sheila Balancing the Books & Her Ambitions
We are proud to present our May 2025 Student of the Month, Sheila Purtill! Since starting her training with Pitman, Sheila has been incredibly hardworking and resilient. Our team at the Clare Centre continuously notices her dedication and drive, making this award well deserved.
“I’m currently doing the Bookkeeping Diploma, hoping to get back into the workforce. I feel that the course is easy to follow, and with the help and encouragement of the girls at the centre, I passed my first two tests.”
“From the first moment I walked through the door, I felt welcomed, and my nerves went away. Each day I go, I’m greeted by the girls, and the atmosphere is very calming and relaxing. The girls at the desk are lovely, helpful, and very encouraging. Nothing is too much trouble; they are always willing to help.”
“If you are considering training with Pitman, talk to the girls and go for it. The whole experience is great. There is always a friendly face to greet you, and no question phases them. They are very encouraging.”

At Pitman Training, flexibility isn’t just about convenience — it’s about offering training that fits around your life and commitments.
You’re in Control of Your Schedule
We don’t lock you into fixed class times. Instead, you choose:
- The days and times that suit your availability
- Whether you prefer intensive full-day sessions, evenings after work, or weekend blocks
This means your training can be structured around your lifestyle, job, or family commitments — not the other way around.

Our blended learning approach combines the freedom of learning from home with the reassurance of ongoing support.
You can:
- Complete most of your course from home
- Stay connected with your Learning Coach and fellow students
- Access structured content with guidance whenever you need it
This is not just online learning on your own, it’s a supported experience designed to help you succeed.
Skills That Prepare You for the Real World
Every Pitman course is built with a practical focus. We emphasise:
- Hands-on, real-world skills you’ll actually use
- Learning in a safe, supportive environment
- Encouraging growth by treating mistakes as learning opportunities
By the end of your course, you’ll be confident applying your new skills directly in the workplace, not just passing exams.
