Just did my office assistant course, and it was a great experience. Jake, Tracy, Elizabeth were wonderful instructors. Wendy lightens up the building when you walk in, Angela is very kind. Chris made sure we didn’t pull our hair out during Quickbooks. The other staff in the building are wonderful as well.The course taught me what the transition to an office setting would be like. I gained knowledge in phone skills, computer skills and people skills.

Taking the Office Assistant program was a great experience. My certificate helped me find exactly the job I wanted. I learned the skills I needed to do the work but also skills to be successful in other areas of finding employment. Everyone at Training Inc. was friendly and knowledgable. I wasn’t just taught something, I was also encouraged and lifted up! Thank you Training Inc!
