What Individuals
Have to Say Regarding Houghton College's
Professional Development Training Sessions
“The classes I
took were very informative and there was a lot of
information disseminated. They have proved to be
very helpful with my job. I would definitely
recommend any training Houghton College P.A.C.E. has
to offer.”
"I attended your
Access class and found it extremely beneficial.
Since then, we have developed our database quite a
bit, however we are finding that we need additional
skills/training to be more efficient and take it to
the next level. I did attend an advanced class
through <name of company withheld>, but found that
is wasn’t advanced by any means. I learned more in
your half day class than in two full day sessions."
An IT
professional took the Free Excel class at Houghton
College and then took what he expected would be a
more advanced Excel class from the largest Western
New York training company. He wrote:
"My Excel Level 2 class at <name of company
withheld> was scheduled to end at 4pm but I couldn’t
take it. The teacher had a much different teaching
style than yours (the Houghton instructor); she
basically showed us a very simplistic demo and then
told us to do the exercises in the workbook they
gave us. I attended this class for free but if I
would have paid the $300 like other attendees I
would have been very upset. At our first break, I
noticed that the other four classroom members
weren’t impressed either. I told them (not the
instructor) about the free classes from Houghton
College P.A.C.E. and directed them to the website to
find the Free Training link. They seemed very
interested in your free training options and I
explained how much better your Excel class was."
“I and others I
have talked with have found the session to be very
well done. I think that it is very rare this day to
find anything for free, especially something that is
of this high of a quality.”
“The FREE
Professional Development sessions at Houghton
College at West Seneca are very cost effective for
any individual, agency, or whomever is inquiring.
The cost is time and transportation, which is
minimal compared to other equivalent trainings.
Also, that it is a hands on session, which is few
and far between. The instructors are extremely well
qualified.”
“The
Professional Development classes at Houghton College
P.A.C.E. are wonderful. The instructors were very
well prepared, the content was extremely helpful and
well presented. And I still can not believe it is
FREE!”
“These sessions
are an excellent opportunity to gain valuable
knowledge that can help you in your workplace. It
is well worth the time to take the courses.”
“I am much
better equipped for my current employer and my
volunteer work as a result of these classes.”
“I am very
grateful for your services. I would not have been
able to afford these classes on my own. I have
become a more valuable employee due to these
classes.”
“I sharpened my
skills to make me a more productive worker.”
“These classes
are the best bargain around as the quality of the
instruction is excellent and the price can not be
beat.”
“I really
enjoyed the workshop and learned a lot and already
using what I learned at my job.”
“I was extremely
pleased with the courses I have taken. They have
all been very useful and I would recommend them to
anyone.
“The
Professional Development trainings were well
structured, informative, and pleasant.”
“Classes are packed with information and you are
given a lot of background information on why it’s
set up this way and the functions of each step. I
learned a lot.”
“These classes are a great introduction to each of
the major MS Office applications. The classes
acquaint or reacquaint you with many of the
functions that will speed your work or add spice to
your style. The pleasant experience of Houghton’s
West Seneca campus and the professionalism of the
staff makes these FREE classes the best educational
deal in town.”
"I
participated in an Excel refresher course. I found
your one day class very informational and useful.
Many times I would use MS Word to create tables, but
now I use Excel and its' functions to expedite my
work and impress my superiors."
“The courses were relevant to what I am working on
now at work.”
“I could not have learned the Microsoft Office
Products without these classes. I was struggling
with trying to learn them from books. This was just
what I needed.”
“The information has helped to make my job easier
and there were numerous helpful hints and the
downloaded files were excellent.”
“The four hours is time well spent. The material
was well organized, and the overview of the power of
the programs helped me to think of other uses I
doubt I would have seen if I were trying to learn on
a page by page basis.”
“The instructor was excellent. He certainly knew
his material and presented it to the student in a
well planned out manner. His personal attitude was
friendly, classes were started promptly. He had a
lot of material to cover in the fours hours and did
so very well.”
“The quality of instruction was superb. I went to
college seven years and I never had such quality
instruction with such caring instructors. Bravo!!!”
“The instruction and material covered was above what
I was expecting.” |
