Testimonials

I completed the Advanced Excel course and found it so good that I returned to complete the VBA course. By chance both courses happened to be on a 1-1 basis and my tutor Huseyn tailored the course to my needs. The course was very hands on as most of the course involved using the info learned in class and applying it to data supplied by Infero. The workbooks provided were clearly illustrated and had a step by step guide to complete each process.

I found the Excel Bespoke Course at Infero to be excellent and exactly the training that I required so that I can implement these skills in my job. I feel the main thing that has directly impacted me so far is the efficiency in conducting analysis and reports. What used to take me hours to do is now taking minutes. This is directly down to the effective manner taught to me by Huseyn in which he related the theory very well with the practice so that it became easier for me to apply in my work life. Examples of what I have learnt from the course coming into practice are advanced formulas, sorting and filtering tables, modifying charts, and I believe macros will play a vital role in the near future too.

Large Creative had been using Excel for years without realising its full potential. Suada’s relaxed style made the training modules both pleasurable and easy to follow. The training we received on Excel at Infero has proved invaluable to my company.

I was absolutely delighted with the Excel courses that Infero delivered which more than exceeded my expectation. I learnt new ways of using Excel that I can now use in my day to day work to make my work more efficient. Pivot tables were always a mystery to me but now I use them regularly to display HR and Payrol data.

I attended the level 3b training course offered by Infero Training and, like with many similar courses I have attended, was initially worried that it would be too much information to take in at once. However, the manuals and exercises provided along with the guidance and experience of our trainer Martin made the course interactive, concise and, dare I say it, enjoyable. I would highly recommend.

I have just recently changed jobs and thought it was about time I got my excel skills up to speed. Although I have been using Excel for a number of years I found that attending the intermediate course very useful. It has given me a better understanding of Excel and now I am more confident in using it. Samer was a great tutor and made what could have been a boring day a little more interesting.

The day after taking the Excel Intermediate Course, I created two pivot tables and used several advanced formulas to do, in ten minutes, tasks that would previously have taken me hours. The teaching at Infero is easy to follow, the lessons are brilliantly delivered and the instructors are experts in their field, extremely friendly and endlessly patient. There are just the right number of breaks between concise, targeted modules to make learning as near effortless as possible. The ‘aftercare’ element - a tutor will usually answer your queries within hours - is particularly valuable. A great lunch, too.

The Formulas were most helpful for me as I’ve never wrote on before and we use them every day in my job. I honestly think no improvements are needed. It ran incredibly smoothly, Martin was very patient with us all and answered any questions wonderfully.

How we started from the very basics. There were no presumptions that we knew anything which helped me pick up things I never would have known if I hadn’t been shown. Martin’s delivery was brilliant. Excel training has the potential to be very boring and I expected it to be but Martin kept it interesting and kept us involved in the session. I have taken quite a lot away from the training which will come into good use.
