SkillsTrain Reviews from Students

I feel that in the last month I have achieved more than I thought possible whilst looking after my 9 week old baby. I got 100% for my last assignment which I am very proud of. I thought I would struggle with my course now I have a baby to look after but I now feel more confident I can get through it if I just keep working hard.

I am please with my studies online with you. I have no regret doing that.

Although it was difficult at first, but now thanks be to God for I am amaze on the knowledge I have now with Microsoft 2007 usage.

I am doing the last part of Microsoft excel 2007 (part C, version 4.0). I can wait to finish my course and do my exams which I know I will pass very well; and then look for a better paid job.

Thanks to skillstrain.

Thank you!

I have just completed section Two Part B. I have never done any payroll before. In my first tutor-assessed assignment 13 I just achieved a mark of 52% which is very low for me, because I did not understand it properly. So I revised the chapters again and studied harder. On my next assignment I achieved a mark of 95%. So studying harder helped me with understanding the payroll theory and achieving higher points.

I have managed to increase dramatically the number of TMAs submitted within the month of July with an average turnaround of 4 days per assignment. I have also built a website from the knowledge I have gained for my brother's company:

This month I dedicated myself to studying the course and always was prepared to answer the questions for the next assignment. I have never been able to study this well before, and I have started to enjoy the course more.

I feel proud that I was able to complete the Section 1 - A within such a short time frame. Although I had to resubmit some TMA's I felt happy when I got feedback from tutors and was able to achieve higher marks on the following submitted TMAs.

Using the skills I have gathered from Section 1 - A, I have already been able to implement some of this at my work place.

Thanks Scott and Andrew for your support and marking my assignments promptly, I have been able to progress and remain focused on my course with your help.

Regards

I have just passed the A+ and awaiting my certificate, studying 7 days a week for my N+ so that I can progress and start my new business. The course has inspired me to deliver a better user experience for my family and potential customers. I have just set up a 10 Computer Network for a friend who has a business selling grooming product all over the UK. I am so glad that I could assist his business.

All thanks to the A+.

I have managed to come towards the completion of my course with only Part B left to submit of my revision supplement. It has been stressful. and hard to come towards to the end of the course, due to having to care for my mum, due to her medical condition. Also having to take responsibility of the house chores and caring for my younger siblings. I am happy and proud of the stage I have reached.

I have completed 6 assignments so far. In all of them I got the best results about 90 to 95%. I knew that I can get good result but Now I am confident that I can complete all my work like this excellent.

With a background of retail and an interest in web design and technologies, I enrolled into the E-Commerce course back in January 2008. Two years on and I found a job in a local IT company having expressed interest in the technology. Since then, I have passed my CIW foundations exam and my role has changed (and my salary!) from a predominately sales and marketing role to web marketing management and web design. I now get involved with Wordpress development, writing my own HTML/CSS and Javascript from scratch and even inputting design ideas to the ASP.NET development team!

Support calls originally were a bit daunting at first, but with the studies I did for my CIW Foundations exam I am now able to assist our clients with user issues, including network connectivity and general Windows-based user issues. Passing the exam gave me the confidence to move forward and although there is more to achieve, it gave me the lift that I needed to succeed.
