Excellent training and experience

Excellent training and experience

a group of colleagues attended a bespoke excel course with STL with Jens as the trainer. everything from start to finish was excellent - SImon in the office team was very efficient, listened to what i needed and came back with reasonable suggestions and follow up in a speedy way. Everything was about what we needed and no sales tactic - it was genuinely about the relationship and helping us, which i really appreciated. the course itself was rated excellent by my team and they all praised Jens' enthusiasm and knowledge. We will use them again and I'd thoroughly recommend. Also a hot lunch in a restaurant is a GREAT bonus! thanks to everyone at STL

Hi Dimple,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review. We're delighted to hear that you and your colleagues had an excellent experience from start to finish on your bespoke Excel course.

It's especially rewarding to hear your feedback about Simon and the office team. Building long-term relationships, listening carefully to our clients' needs, and recommending the right solution is at the heart of what we do, so we're pleased that came across throughout the process.

We're also very proud of our trainer Jens, and it's wonderful to hear that his enthusiasm, knowledge, and engaging delivery were so well received by your team. Bespoke Excel training can have a real impact on productivity and efficiency when it's tailored to the way delegates actually work, so it's great to know the course hit the mark.

As you mentioned the restaurant lunch, we're glad you were able to enjoy one of the extras we provide alongside our training experience. We hope it was a pleasant addition to the day!

Don't forget that your team also has access to our trainer support forum for two years after the course. If any questions arise as you put your new Excel skills into practice, it's a great place to connect directly with our trainers for guidance.

Thank you again for your recommendation. We look forward to welcoming you and your team back for future training.

Best wishes,

Introduction to management course

I went on the Introduction to management course with Chrissie, which was a really well-rounded and informative course. Chrissie created a very safe space and encouraged us to ask any questions we had and share any thoughts at all, she allowed time for each person to discuss their individual journeys to management. I have come away with lots of ideas and this has provided me with the confident to take the next step in my career.

A chaotic requirement with a balanced, structured solution

We had a particular requirement for a basic introductory course into SQL, we had various different levels of skills and knowledge so a lot of the time Andrew was absorbing all the chaos as we explained our business and our requirements and then would guide us through examples that were more direct to our needs. All in all a really interesting and well given training day. It raised our awareness and determined the team of individuals who could take this further.

We set the challenge and Andrew rose up and exceeded.

A great Advanced COPILOT course from STL, taught brilliantly by Atlas

This was a thoroughly enjoyable course, which I learnt a huge amount from and have started putting what I learnt in place already. Atlas was a great tutor, and this is the second course I've been on that was run by Atlas. He taught everything brilliantly in an easy-to-understand way. I would thoroughly recommend this course to anyone that wants to progress their co-pilot skills.

STL Automation course…

I attended the STL Automation course and had a really positive experience. Duncan was a great facilitator — knowledgeable, patient and very approachable. The course was well organised, the administration was excellent, and the pace was just right, giving everyone plenty of opportunity to follow along and ask questions. The lunch was also a nice bonus! Overall, a really well-run and enjoyable course. I’d definitely recommend it.

Would recommend - great trainer and great provider

I thoroughly enjoyed the course, and Karen was a great trainer! Nothing was ever a silly question or made you feel like you should know the answer.

Everything was explained in detail and at a good pace, and it really made me feel relaxed walking into a subject I know nothing about.

Would 100% recommend the project management - framework & processes course and STL as a training provider. If you have the pleasure of having Karen as your trainer, you're in for a great session!
