Where will the training take place?

Tutor and traineeOur trainers are always happy to visit you at your office or home to provide individual or small-group tuition, but.....on the other hand.....

Why not come to our Ufford office, set in an idyllic rural location in the heart of the Lincolnshire countryside, less than 10 minutes from both Peterborough and Stamford (one of the finest stone-built towns in England). There is ample off-road parking immediately adjacent to our office.

Our flexible daytime and evening courses can be tailored to suit your individual requirements, and can be booked in sessions of as little as two hours upwards.

Our Saturday courses provide the perfect way to combine business with pleasure. Improve your computer skills, smell the flowers, enjoy a pub lunch at Ye Olde White Hart, and, should you wish, have us arrange for you to spend a comfortable night at a well-appointed local farmhouse.
