Course Reviews
[The trainer] was fantastic throughout the day and made me feel at ease as I was a little nervous

M.D. Public course, Excel Level 1

Which part of the course did you find particularly valuable Every section of the course was very useful, explained very well. I particularly found useful the gradient and text wrapping bits, as well as setting up styles and contents pages

What were the most useful aspects of the course I already knew a bit about indesign but compound paths and gradients were new to me.
