Training Consultancy

Save Time Using the Tools You Already Have

Stop wasting time fighting your documents, spreadsheets, and systems

Get a personalised 1-to-1 session where I analyse how you work and show you faster, smarter ways to use the tools you already rely on.

  • Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint

  • Email (Outlook & Gmail)

  • AI tools (Copilot, ChatGPT)

  • Every day business files and workflows

One focused session. Real improvements. Immediate time savings.

This is ideal for you if:

  • You reuse the same documents or spreadsheets over and over

  • You feel like your files should be doing more of the work

  • You’re manually formatting, copying, updating, or checking things

  • You want practical improvements, not generic training

This is not for you if:

  • You want a full training course

  • You’re looking for basic “how Word works” tutorials

  • You don’t use digital tools regularly in your work

Why Training Consultancy Saves You More Time Than Traditional Training

Traditional Training Sounds Good… But Often Falls Short

In a typical training session:

  • The topics are pre-set

  • Everyone follows the same agenda

  • Practice files are generic

  • Examples don’t reflect your real work

  • Not every topic is relevant to you

Sessions may last half a day or a full day — but not all of the content applies to every attendee.

Many people leave traditional training feeling they may only use 10% of what was covered — or worse, unsure how to apply it to their own files.

And once they return to their desk, the gap between “training example” and “real-world document” becomes clear.

Training Consultancy Is Different

Training Consultancy focuses entirely on your work.

Instead of generic practice files, we:

  • Work directly with your real documents and spreadsheets

  • Discuss how you currently use them

  • Improve structure, layout, and formulas

  • Apply tools immediately within your files

  • Connect features together in ways that support your workflow

You don’t just learn features — you learn how they apply to your actual work.

Every topic covered is relevant.
Every improvement is practical.
Everything learned can be used immediately.

Why One Session Is Worth It

A single one-hour session can:

  • Save hours every week

  • Remove repetitive manual tasks

  • Reduce errors and rework

  • Improve confidence and accuracy

  • Streamline how files are shared and updated

If you save just 15 minutes a day, that’s over 60 hours a year.

The investment in one Training Consultancy session quickly pays for itself in time saved — and continues delivering value long after the session ends.

100%

Training That Delivers 100% Relevance

Traditional training = broad coverage, mixed relevance.

Training Consultancy = targeted improvements, immediate application.

You don’t leave with notes.
You leave with better files.

Why this works

I’m an experienced IT trainer who specialises in how people actually work, not just how software is supposed to be used.

Most people don’t need more tools.
They need to use their existing tools better.

That’s what this session is for.

Your content goes here. Edit or remove this text inline or in the module Content settings. You can also style every aspect of this content in the module Design settings and even apply custom CSS to this text in the module Advanced settings.

You stay in control the whole time. I guide and explain so you can repeat the improvements yourself later.

It’s practical consultancy with training built in.

You won’t get slides or theory — you’ll get improvements applied to your real work.

It depends on the work we do, you can have a backup document to work on if we complete work on your first choice file.

Many people find one hour is enough to unlock major improvements.
If needed, you can always book another session later.

There’s no ongoing commitment. It is best to have time between session so absorb all the new information and apply it.
