"This was very new to me using my laptop, Microsoft and Teams. I came away from the course with more skills, and more confidence after doing the training."

"This course was extremely beneficial to me in everyway. I would not hesitate to recommend this course to anyone who wishes to train in this area. There is absolutely no part, or area in the content of the course where I felt disappointed. There is for me, no reason for why anyone should worry about this course not fulfilling their anticipated training needs. This course not only fulfilled all my expectations completely, but gave my far more than I anticipated gaining. I walked away from the course with much more than I expected to take with me at the end.."

"This was the second time I attended a course delivered online by Lir Business Services and Training Centre. Frances was our tutor again and she delivered the course in a clear manner, the handouts and material that we could assess during the course was of huge benefit. I got all the information I needed to complete the assignments and project from the elearning hub. I would highly recommend Lir Business Services and Training Centre."
Deirdre Hunt

"Brilliant tutor, very adaptable and helpful. Could not recommended LIR enough. I found LIR quick to respond to any queries, and plenty of in depth information. I am now a Trainer and I have attended two courses with Frances and will return to LIR for any further courses I do."
