ctc TrainCanada - We Never Cancel*:
We are unique in the corporate training field in that we do not cancel desktop applications courses due to low enrollment. When there are less than 3 students, ctc TrainCanada will personalize the class (students then receive more time with the instructor to address their individual needs allowing the student to complete the full course in less time) or connect the student remotely to a class at one of our other branches via TrainLive remote classroom instruction. *Microsoft Certified Courses and other technical courses require a minimum enrollment of three students. Business Skills courses require multiple students in order to run due to the interactive nature of the training. Selected Desktop Applications courses may require a minimum enrollment of two students to run. ctc TrainCanada® reserves the right to deliver Microsoft Certified and other technical courses via TrainLive remote classroom instruction in order to guarantee the course to run.

Full payment is required if you cancel or reschedule this registration within 10 business days prior to the first day of the course. However, substitutions are welcome. If you do need to cancel or reschedule a publicly scheduled course within the 10 day non-cancellation period (not a client dedicated course), payment is to be made and a training voucher for a public course will be issued to you. This allows you to attend a future date for the same course at no charge (subject to availability).

Here are some reviews of the training vendor.

   

The instructor had limited knowledge of the program and could not answer quetions that weren't in his notes. The manual was only provided in a Kindle copy. I can not use a Kindle at work. The projection screen was to close to the work station which made it uncomfortable to look at all day.

Instructor was beyond helpful. Followed-up with an e-mail outlining course content. A very positive and engaging instructor. Excellent knowledge of subject matter and a total pleasure to take instruction from.

The only thing I didn't like was the location. I am not from the city and having to go right down town was not enjoyable at all.

The course was scheduled to start at 9am according to the website but was rescheduled for 10am and this update was not communicated to us as we showed up for 9am and had to wait an hour; it also ran an hour later which was not planned for since it started an hour later.

All I would like to suggest is to have more comfortable chairs. By the end of the day I was ready to stand up rather than sit! :)

The in class session was handled well enough, but there were no support materials or handouts to take home for students to review what they learned. This is especially important since this Excel module used complex formulas and macros. One 8 hour training day won't be enough for people to remember it when they get back to the office.

Instructor covered the course material very effectively and provided enough time to complete the lab portions of the course.

The course idea was a great one for the company I work for, HOWEVER, the course did NOT meet expectations. For example NO TEXT BOOKS, NO WORK BOOKS, NOTHING. I was sent a copy for my Kindle, however I will not use my personal property for work, this is UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!! The instuctor could have been more interactive, I know that he was a last minute instructor, but once again this is UNACCEPTABLE.

The trainer was unfortunately late for the class through no fault of her own. Secondly, the class was full of technical issues trying to support the remote users. As a result the overall class time and content was reduced. We raced through the material. Secondly - and more important - there was no roadmap presented on what we were going to learn. There was also no introduction to the software or interface. We just jumped straight into code and bounced from topic to topic with no roadmap. The instructor definitely knew her material but it came across as haphazard. I don't feel I got a lot from the day.

The seminar/course didn't cover all the subjects that were mentioned on the "course outline". I believe we only covered 75% of what was mentioned. I understand that the instructor was not prepared for teaching the course, but if the instructor doesn't have a firm knowledge of the software, then they shouldn't be teaching the course. It is great to hear that a company is going green by using E-books but I prefer to have a hard copy. As an employee of a company, it is difficult to install the proper software to open/read the books. Also, an average user isn't authorized to install programs without going through their respective IT/Management departments. We should have been given an option to choose between a hard copy or electronic copy. Overall, I would take another seminar if the instructor was more knowledgeable and abided by the course outline.

It was an excellent course. The instructor was knowledgable and I learned more than I expect. My only problem with the day was finding the actual office. The instructions indicate the 'Delta Tower' but there is no where on the actual building that says 'Delta Tower'. To make things more confusing, there is a Delta Hotel across the street.

The course outline stated the durtion of the course is from 9:00am-4:30pm, however the instractor said it's going to be a half day course. This was ok but it didn't leave any time to practice and the minimal practice we didn't wasn't enough. Also, not all material was covered and it felt like I came out short. The material that was covered was great and the instructor was knowlegable but he didn't cover enough material. comparing dollars versus value - the content of the course wasn't worth the cost of the course.

I thought that the course was excellent, and i learned quite a bit in a short amount of time, and our instructor was awesome. He definetly knows what he is doing, and yes i would take another course if it was available.

If there weren't enough class participants signed up, the 2nd day of training which we paid for was cancelled and we could either come in and work on exercises or attend another class at another time. A notice was sent out to the participants who registered directly with CTC Train Canada but because I went through Last Minute Training, I wasn't advised. This is one major setback. They did have a very nice office, free coffee/tea and bagels, a nice outdoor patio to have lunch or breaks and made fresh cookies mid day for everyone. Very pleasant staff. Trainer began his session with how he was trying to get out of this business for the last 15 yrs and probably shouldn't be saying that. Not a happy way to introduce himself but he was a very good teacher and patient and addressed all of our concerns trying to cover as much of the material normally covered in 2 days into 1 day.

I enjoyed the Access 2010 course. the instructor was very knowledgeable and presented the topic well. The only negative aspect was that no written training materials were offered until the course was completed. Would have liked to be able to make notes as we went along for future reference.

The course was initially scheduled for 2 days but due to instructor availability it was shortened to one day. I am very computer literate, work full time in an office, and go to business school in the evenings and it was a little tough to learn everything in one day because there was no time for practice. Yes it was useful to find out what the program is capable of, but since it was shortened there was no time for individual practicing or trying things out on your own. Next time the class would be much better suited for the initial 2 day class.

Reviewed by Melissa P. 2012

   

All in all, this training was not that great. The first part moved very slowly, and then toward the end, the instructor plowed through to get finished. Possibly the most incredible part was that the course taught how to create forms, but not how to deploy or use them. The instructor said for that, participants would have to take the follow up course. What use is it to create forms if they can't be used? No handouts at all? Other courses I've taken provide full books with step by step coverage of everything done in the classroom. It's impossible to go back and review things.

Reviewed by Andy J. 2012

   

My most significant feedback is that the course was advertised as Working with Data using SQL for the 'non-database administrator'. Of the 10 course modules, nearly half were presented by the instructor as tasks that would be completed by a database administrator. While it is helpful to have a general understanding of a database administrators interaction with SQL, far too much of the course content was aimed at the database administrator level. Otherwise, use of technology for remote teaching and the instructor himself were both excellent.
