Great course

The presenter was very engaging and coached us step-by-step. Even though there was a lot of information covered during the two-day course, it was arranged so well it wasn't overwhelming. I increased my skills and knowledge rapidly, and have a new confidence when using InDesign.

I was very impressed with all aspects…

I was very impressed with all aspects of City Desktop Training. The website was easy to use to select the course and book. I liked the location and the facilities - the training room and the break out room were both thoughtfully laid out, and the provision of magazines and refreshments was appreciated. The presenter had a great manner, was very knowledgeable and kept checking to make sure we were all keeping up. The learning pace was perfect and having a small class helped in keeping the training moving along. I feel very confident now in using InDesign.
