โ€I have been working with Sharyn for a number of years to deliver Excel training courses to our staff based around NZ. Sharyn is super easy to deal with from enquiries to booking and all the admin. Nothing is ever a problem. ย Her sessions are informative, she makes sure everyone gets what she is saying so no one is left behind. Her continued support after the session with refresher emails is a bonus too. The team appreciate her friendly approach, patience and expertise. They always come away from the sessions with lots of practical skills that can be applied immediately in their day-to-day. We would definitely recommend Sharyn as your go-to Excel guru!โ€

“I have had the pleasure of working with Sharyn and Excel at Work over the last eight years utilising the well-structured progressive training modules in Excel, Word and Powerpoint with beginner through to advanced capability users. These courses are well summarised in the course literature and give clear scoping around content and benefits. Whether the training has been face to face or provided remotely – staff have always been eager to learn and the benefits to the business are tangible. One of the most satisfying elements is seeing the nervousness of staff who want the training but have been tentative grow in confidence and then starting to help others. The follow up support and services provided by Sharyn further cements the value of Excel at Work in the business. From introduction through scheduling and delivery I will continue to work with Sharyn to grow skills, capability, competence and confidence our teams. We have fun too”

“Spicers, Total Supply and Universal Packaging have been working with Sharyn for the past 9 years with great success.ย Each year when we complete our annual reviews there are always requests for Excel courses and Sharyn is our go-to.ย I collate all the requests and send them through to Sharyn, and she works her magic in the background, arranging times and courses and emailing participants to book them in.ย She makes the whole process seamless, from enquiring about the course through to the courses taking place.ย She is patient and accommodating when business gets in the way and changes have to be made, nothing is ever an issue.

The feedback after the courses is always exceptionally positive about Sharyn as a trainer, our team raves about her!!ย  She makes the topics easy to understand, remember and integrate into daily work life.ย Those who have done the courses are definitely more proficient!
If you are looking to do an Excel course yourself, or looking to book your team, we cannot recommend Sharyn enough, she is a brilliant trainer and super easy to deal with.”
