SOFTEACH and Newbury College
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010Client Spotlight: Miken Builders
Monday, February 22nd, 2010Miken Builders needed training for Microsoft Project for their project managers, project leaders, and some of their administrative support staff. While their staff was familiar with the software, it hadn’t been used to its full potential. When Miken received a Workforce Training Grant from the government, they contracted with Softeach to help their employees maximize their use of the software based on their objectives, processes, equipment and standards—and ultimately to improve productivity.
Two days of customized on-site training was set up, and included Saturday training so that project staff wasn’t away from their job responsibilities too long during the busy work week.*
“I was very pleased with the attention and professionalism your entire organization showed us,” said Lindsay Maurer, Marketing Manager with Miken Builders, “The Softeach instructors were not only experts, but went above and beyond to use examples our team could relate to and learn from. I wouldn’t use another computer training company.”
* Unlike plumbers, Softeach doesn’t charge extra for Saturdays.
SOFTEACH Delivers Customized Services to TERC
Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010TERC has used Softeach trainers for five years; during that time we have developed a wonderful working relationship with our sales representatives and trainers. Their responsiveness and flexibility have been very helpful in developing trainings appropriate to the wide range of skills and learning needs of TERC staff. We support the use of applications from MS Office and Filemaker to Adobe Creative Suite, at all skill levels, and Softeach has helped us deliver trainings tailored to the needs of our staff. Softeach trainers have even learned new applications upon request. As the in-house training manager at TERC, I greatly appreciate having a training partner that I can rely on to fulfill our needs.

Thielsch Saves Time and Money with Customized Training
Monday, January 25th, 2010The IT team at Thielsch Engineering, Inc., which supports 200 end-users, needed to get up to speed on SQL and Active Directory quickly due to deadlines. Peter Ferreira contacted SOFTEACH and expressed his concern that they didn’t have a lot of time for training.

The instructor specifically addressed Thielsch’s needs, using its layout and working through specific technical issues. They were impressed with the quality of the training and efficiency, as it saved them time and money.
