    - Heidi Hartwig, Director, National Field Sales Operations, Ultra Mobile
  • I wanted to check in to tell you that Sue was amazing! I learned so much in the (Excel PivotTables) course. She was knowledgeable, thorough and patient. I learned many new things that I can take back into my role and apply real world! Sue even counseled on future courses, so I’ll likely be back soon. She was also incredibly complimentary of you, the organization, the textbook and approach. I just wanted to reach out to say thank you to you and thank you to Sue!
    - T. Adams
  • I just received a message from an attendee saying it was the most informative class he'd ever taken. You and your team are really great. Thank you so much for sharing your deep knowledge of Excel with us in such an accessible way! We will definitely want to have you (or any of your staff) back again.
    - Jocelyn, Caltech Library
  • I did a ton of research and comparison before I enrolled to take my classes with you, by far you're the best in Long Beach and the South Bay.

    In my professional life I have encountered a number of corporate trainers, management, business owners, and entrepreneurs, you and your staff really do represent what training and education should be. Everyone is welcoming and knowledgeable, along with kind and understanding. Those attributes are something that really needs to be out there, so that other consumers can make the right choice for education and come to you first.
    - Melissa H.
  • I truly enjoyed your training and feel your classes are amazing and informative. The time and patience you take to teach your students is exemplary. I've been to a few trainings in my 38 years of service to the county and found you are the best I've attended.
    - Sandy Contreras Rodriguez, LA County Hall of Records
  • I wanted to write back to say thank you and Sue for providing a great training day on 10/15. I think that, for the fact that I took two classes in a row but some of the information was a 'refresher' for my memory, the info was just enough for my brain. Though I know there were so few of us students that day, even if the classroom were full, I would still appreciate knowing that it's small enough so that everyone gets enough attention. And I could see that Sue was very attentive toward us and truly wanted to make sure we were understanding the lessons. I encouraged my colleagues to sign up with Accelerate should any of them want or require offsite computer training.
    - Kimberly D., American Honda Motor Company
  • I wanted to thank you for your terrific work with our team last week. Our attendees are universal in their praise for Accelerate, the Excel classes, and your personal work as trainer with our team. The material covered and class tempo satisfied all in attendance. Even the more advanced of our participants experienced “aha!” moments during your class. All attendees have expressed that they expect these classes will have a direct, positive impact on their day-to-day performance. We will look forward to working with you again soon!

  • It has been a few months since my class and I am still applying the information that I learned to everyday work. Tim Jones is a wonderful instructor who makes learning enjoyable.
    - Accelerate student
  • Tim is a very good tutor. Extremely easy to understand and moves the class at a steady pace. I came to this class feeling I had very little knowledge of Excel, but am learning. I learned much more than I thought I would. I now feel more confident with Excel. I look forward to taking the Advanced Excel class if Tim is the instructor.
    - Accelerate student
  • The Intermediate Excel seminar put on by Accelerate Computer Training was one of the best seminars I have attended. The instructor was an expert in her field and was able to cover the material in a way that was easy to understand. I learned so much during the course that I will use constantly in my position at Broadcom. Thank you so much for putting together a great training! I will definitely recommend ACT to all of my peers!
