Did you know...

The average business PC user wastes between 15 and 30 minutes per day incorrectly using Microsoft Office applications.

In a 50 employee company that equates to more than 1 FTE (full time equivalent employee)!

Typical PC training center courses for Microsoft Office products are expensive, time consuming, and too generic for the average user.

 

PCTS tailors courses based on user roles, and we train in your office.
