Testimonials

Maria Dumitrescu

21st Century Educators

I was interested in finding out if I could use intelligent machines in my line of work. The course provided me with contacts in the world on artificial intelligence and opened the door to thinking about using Al in teaching and training.

Victoria Gillard

Kingkraft Ltd.

I joined the Web Marketing short course as I’d like to move into a Digital Marketing role. It taught me how to use relevant programmes and understand the day-to-day of what a marketer does. As a result, I feel more confident in the use of these skills and have already implemented them into my current work. The course was very informative and will help people wanting to move into a similar role.

Tom Vickers

Stoneface Creative

If there's a need within yourself to develop and an opportunity to learn for free then it's definitely work taking the opportunity while it's here.

Gabi Binnie

Gradconsult

Colleagues have gained confidence in taking on more complex pieces of work, working more closely with senior staff and have gained an understanding of key principles of project management in particular, which they have then seen in practice.

Edward Dawson

Newly Weds Foods

Tanni was a credit to the organisation delivering the topic professionally whilst being still approachable and sympathetic enough to explain areas to those less understanding. He was patient, clear and knowledgeable about his subject.

Liz V

RSM Lining Supplies Global Ltd

The training supplied by Advancing Digital was great; Tanni was able to speak to a group with different abilities and make them all feel confident and able. It has helped me feel confident in my new role.

Ahmed M

BLE Smoke & Fire Curtains

I have gained knowledge doing these sessions. They were definitely useful for what I want to do in my future career.

Abbie W

The Children’s Hospital Charity

The course was very beneficial for all sectors, it wasn’t just about software. There were some tips & programmes which we can take back to our work places. Tanni was great and really altered his teaching style to everyone. Signing up was really easy and it was definitely a beneficial course.

Jamie C

Better You

The training format and Tanni were very personable, and it made the sessions enjoyable.
