What our students say...

Catherine CuttsSkillsTrain student Catherine Cutts, who achieved an A+ grade with a 96% pass in her June 2007 Level 3 Computerised Payroll exam.

Catherine Cutts said:-
“I decided to sign up for the SkillsTrain course because I wanted an accounting qualification, mainly to prove to myself that I could do it. It’s already helped with my career and with my confidence because I’ve been able to take on a client’s accounts and payroll in the evenings, which allows me to fit two jobs around school hours”.
