“Making the first step is the hardest. Pitman made it very easy for me to do. They offer a fantastic range of courses. The material is very easy to follow and set up in a way that makes it very easy to use. The staff have always been fantastic to me and encouraged me all the way. Even when, I felt like giving up myself. I can’t say enough about how happy I am to have taken the first step with Pitman.” KARENA HUNTER - OFFICE MANAGER DIPLOMA STUDENT

“I enrolled with Pitman Training Laois in January and all I can say is that I'm delighted I chose them to pursue my training with. Zoe was very helpful, she arranged a Zoom meeting to discuss my options. Everything was easy to understand from the course contents to the costs. Selena and Sam have been amazing to deal with, always only a text away and check in with you every week, it's great to have course advisors that actually know about the course contents and that care about your progression. I'm looking forward to continue with my training over the coming months. I know I'm in good hands.” Rebecca Mulhall Co. Laois
