Client Feedback
“I just took the Excel course hosted by Emma, and taught by Kristen Conte. Thank you Emma for the Excel class. It was brilliant and timely. What a great teacher and class — she had a way of introducing us to how intricately more there is to Excel, and without making us feel as though we will never be able to manage it. Taking this class put me back in touch with CareerCatchers… I look forward to being apprised of more classes, which I will need to transition from the service sector back to office work.”
What did you learn from this class that could help you achieve your goals?
“I have a much better understanding of accounting. I can apply what I have learned comfortably in any work situation that requires bookkeeping.”
“I was able to refresh my knowledge of basic Excel which will be helpful as I continue to expand my knowledge.”
“This class has given me a better understanding of accounting procedures. I will definitely apply what I have learned to my career.”

What would you tell someone considering attending a future workshop?
