Q. Is your training
day rate on a per delegate basis?
A. No. The day rate you see on our prices page is a single cost for up to
8 delegates.
Q. Will there be any
additional costs that I may have to pay?
A. Yes, but we try to keep these to a minimum. Depending on your
proximity to West Sussex, we may also charge for trainer's travelling expenses,
accommodation and subsistence. If you require laptops, there may be an
additional charge for a courier. For a breakdown of the expenses we
charge, visit our prices web page.
Q. What if it's just
me who needs to be trained - will it still cost the same?
A. Our day rate is the same for one-to-one training. You'll
be receiving private tuition, which comes at a premium whatever the learning is
for! If you think of one-to-one training as being the same as a
consultancy session, you'll understand that it's cheap at the price.
Q. Do you run
scheduled training courses?
A. No. All our courses are conducted on site. This means that
we can tailor courses specifically to your requirements instead of a "one size
fits all" approach.
Q.
How do I know that your training courses will be any good?
A. Burningsuit Ltd are accredited by the Institute of IT Training as an
Accredited Training Provider. To achieve this accreditation, we abide by
the code of practice laid down by the Institute. This ensures that we
deliver quality training at all times.
Q.
Are your trainers qualified to deliver IT Training courses?
A. Yes. All our trainers are highly experienced and hold a number of different qualifications that
ensure they deliver courses to a very high standard. Most of our trainers
hold the TAP accreditation in Delivery Skills, issued by the Institute of IT
Training. Other trainers will hold technical qualifications such as
Microsoft Certified Professional.
Q.
Do you use Freelance Trainers?
A. No. All our trainers are employees of Burningsuit Ltd.
This ensures that we can constantly oversee the quality of the training that we
provide.
Q.
What is the maximum number of
trainees that can attend a course?
A. If you are using your own computers for the training, we would
always recommend a maximum number of eight, but we would leave this decision up
to you. If you want to use our laptops and you wish to have more than
eight people attend a course, then we are quite happy to adopt a "buddy up"
system where trainees share a laptop between two. The ideal number
of trainees on any course that combines cost efficiency with maximum learning is
six.
Q.
Will I have to bring anything to the training course?
A. Only your thinking cap! We supply pads, pens and laminated Quick
Reference Guides.
Q. What will be
required of me during a training course?
A. You will get the most out of our training courses if you come prepared
to take an active interest in learning a new topic. Be prepared to ask
questions and be asked questions by your tutor.
Q.
Will I be able to practice my new skills before I leave the Training Course?
A. Yes. All our courses have ample hands-on sessions using structured
exercises as part of the learning process.
