Training
Course Pricing
We provide all courseware and pre-configured laptops for students to work with at your preferred location. We can arrange premises for training at cost, however we find our clients' local knowledge normally makes it much easier and more cost effective for them to arrange themselves.
Costs are inclusive of travel and accommodation within reason, and our pricing structure is based on a course of up to FIVE students - NOT per student.
*This does not include any GST or local sales taxes which may be applicable.
Courses are for up to 5 students. You can combine any courses, as long as the 'main' course (in bold) in any selected band is included. Different students may attend different courses, and if necessary we can provide more than one of any course to accommodate all students. It is quite common to have more than one 'Introductory' course, for example, in order to accommodate managers and BA's.
All courses require a non-refundable deposit of 10%. At our discretion this fee may be used as a credit against future courses in the event of cancellation.
A discount of 25% will be applied for all courses booked before the end of November 2006.
Courses in Band A will typically be delivered by either Wilana Love-Gray or Andrew Judd, and Courses in Band B will typically be delivered by Jerome Pearce or Chris Bell. Delivery of Band C Courses will depend on the selected content.
