About My Online Training Hub

Welcome to My Online Training Hub.

We know that skills in Excel, Word and Outlook give you more job opportunities. And having advanced skills makes you indispensible.

That’s why we make it easy to get your skills up to date fast.

We’d love to keep in touch. Sign up for our free training, or subscribe to our RSS feed and be first to receive new tutorials we add to our site.

I remember when I first used Excel as an accountant working in a huge investment bank in London. It was 1995 and I barely knew how to use a computer, let alone what an Excel spreadsheet was.

It was daunting and I felt overwhelmed. My colleagues showed me how to do a few things, but they were busy and didn’t really have the time to teach me everything I needed to know. I was stressed constantly and I struggled to meet deadlines. Tasks took me ages because I didn’t know how to do things the right way, and properly use the software to do things quickly.

I remember each week being given a huge list of data that had a blank row every 3 or 4 rows that needed removing. I couldn’t sort the data as it had to remain as it was, so I’d spend an hour with my mouse clicking on each row and then clicking the delete row icon. Thankfully my employer sent me on a training course and the lights started to come on.

I learnt how to use the ‘Go To Special’ tool to select the blank rows instantly so I could delete them all in one go. A task that used to take me an hour every week now took less than 30 seconds.

I soon realised how great it felt when things were quick and easy to do. It relieved a lot of the stress I was under and gave me a hunger to learn more.

For the last 7 years Phil (IT Consultant and Microsoft Certified Professional (a.k.a. the nerdy one ) and I have been working with small businesses, and we realised a lot of you were lacking some of the skills you require to do your job effectively and efficiently.

It’s no surprise to us, as we know classroom based training is expensive and it’s a major inconvenience for most small businesses to lose an employee for a day of training.

In our day to day businesses we get asked all the time how to do things in Excel, Word and Outlook and we’ve shown many people how to do things quicker and save hours.

We enjoy sharing what we know and we’d like to help you too, because once you get to grips with a few of the basics you’re going to take off. You’re going to see how much easier it is, how much more time you have and how much less stress you have.

Our Microsoft Office training is not only affordable, almost 1/3 of it is free. The free training is the minimum we think you should know, and if you like what you get for free there’s a paid program available that will fast track your training and supercharge your productivity.

In addition to the free Microsoft Office video training, there’s loads of tutorials in our blog.

We don’t profess to know everything, so if you have a better/alternative way to do something please share it in the comments for everyone to benefit.
