Testimonials
The learning from Tim’s two hour customised session has allowed me to greatly improve my productivity with Excel.
Elizabeth Kessick, JustGiving
Very flexible to suit my needs and a friendly and approachable service!
Natalie Ward, JustGiving
Certainly makes a big difference when the trainer comes to the workplace & uses documents that I work with to use as examples. Plus any other documents I use are at hand if I need to refer to any of them.
Prem Kara, Royal Bank of Scotland
I have a basic understanding of Excel but had inherited this spreadsheet with a circular reference and an Auto filter, that I didn't know how to use. The trainer deleted the circular reference and fully explained the use of an auto filter which I am now using daily - and it's really saving me time. He also gave me some very useful short cut tips.
Ginny Cooper, St Albans Enterprise Agency
At the start of our three hour session the trainer quickly understood what I needed from Excel. We went through the suggested techniques until I could use them unaided. I now use them all the time, saving around two hours per week.
Samson Xu, Steel Business Briefing
It was most enjoyable to receive one-to-one training that was tailored to my needs and experience of Excel. I have been able to put this into practical use on a daily basis.
Christine Knox, Learning and Skills Council
l am already realising productivity gains in my daily project management tasks after my session with Fruitful. The training contained specific topics tailored to my needs and a personalised manual to help me consolidate my learning. Altogether first class from start to finish, I would highly recommend Fruitful training.

Results
fruitful training was invited in to a company where it was felt that several staff could get more from their MS Office applications. Two accounts staff had two hour sessions purely on Excel. A PA had a session mainly on PowerPoint with some time spent on brushing up on Excel and Outlook. An administrator had two hours training on Excel and Word.
As a part of a new contract a company has to provide professional looking Word reports on a monthly basis. The two people tasked with this have not used Word to this level and so fruitful training came in for 2 hours for each person, focussing on the techniques they needed to produce this report. The new reports include updatable tables of contents, footnotes and graphs.
