He is extremely flexible in his arrangements with us. I have no hesitation in recommending Gary to any company who wishes to use his services.
We at Coláiste na Rinne have being dealing with Gary Pheasey the last number of years and would highly recommend Gary. His training days are very informative, highly organised, explains everything in fine detail and answers all questions with full confidence. It is always a pleasure sitting in on these training days. Excel is so much easier to do and understand all thanks to Gary.
The instructor is the best I've come across.
Over the past 20+ years I have done many courses and I can honestly say this course was by far the best in all respects.Gary, the trainer was very clear, easy to understand and very professional dealing with questions and answers.Honestly speaking, when I knew I had to do this course I was a bit nervous, however within minutes Gary had changed the atmosphere in the room from nervous to relaxed, where I found it easier to concentrate and get the best out of the course.
I thoroughly enjoyed this intermediate level Excel course - it was the best course that I have undertaken and would highly recommend DTI for anyone looking to improve their understanding and general usage of Excel. Thank you Gary!
