"I picked Pitman Training Tralee, as I’m working full time and wanted to earn a diploma to go with my experience. To give me a career boost. After speaking with the staff I knew I had made the right decision. They helped me pick a course which would benefit my career and future the best. The most amazing part about Pitman is the amount of support you get. As I work full time, studying at Pitman gives me the flexibility to study in my own time at my own pace. If I have any problems, no matter how little, Joanna, the centre supervisor helps you through everything. Studying Management and Secretarial Skills Diploma, has given me the skills and confidence to achieve my dream job." MAUREEN HOWE - MANAGEMENT DIPLOMA STUDENT

“ My experience has been very positive because I can study at my own pace. Having the materials recorded was very helpful. The staff are very friendly and supportive. Any questions I had they answered. The standards are very high and gave me good skills.
I would recommend Pitman Training to anyone. Great support from the tutors which helps someone achieve the high standards of the programme. Since the material is recorded if you are working this is helpful. There is always a member of staff to help with any questions. This is a great support." Sinead Fitzgerald

I'm glad i took the first step and rang them,the support throughout was fantastic,it was just a shame we couldn't meet face to face.
