What you said - our reviews

Greta Powell Training Reviews“Greta was a great trainer”
She was very thorough and gave me enough time to get to grips with the software myself.

She’s extremely patient and easy to get along with, nothing was ever rushed. I would not hesitate to contact Greta again if I needed training on another piece of software.
Ellie Rivers, EDGE PS, Nottingham

“Such wonderful staff feedback…friendly and really easy to work with!”

Thank you so much. I have had such wonderful staff feedback and they found you very friendly and really easy to work with!

I have spoken to the team, and I will contact you to get you back and do some smaller, more bespoke training with the separate specialisms. Thank you for being so accommodating.”
Nicola Holloway, Curriculum Manager for Creative Arts (Onsite Group Training)

A personalised approach to learning

Photoshop Training near the Pitcher and Piano in NottinghamWhen delivering hands-on training directly onsite to teams at their offices in Nottingham, you’ll often find me catching up on creative food and design projects at lunchtime.

My favourite spot for lunch? That’s easy. Right in the heart of the Lace Market is the stunningly Pitcher and Piano bar on High Pavement. The coffee and food there is superb and their stained glass windows really are something else is the confessional. The world is full of addictive beautiful visual design everywhere and I’m seriously addicted.
 
You know, creative training shouldn’t feel like a cold corporate lecture. It deserves to be inspiring, which is why my courses feel like a focused, creative conversation over a great cup of coffee.
