I attended a Customer Service course. Our instructor was very knowledgeable an was able to teach at everyone's level. The environment was clean and welcoming. Great experience overall. read more

I have had the pleasure of taking three Excel courses here, two with Chris, who is fabulous! Not only because he's basically an Excel wizard but knows how to present the information in a clear and concise manner and with a good sense of humor. I really appreciate how in each class the instructor is committed to ensuring that you understand the information and can actually apply it to real job scenarios. The classes I've been in have been no more than 7 students in total so it feels intimate and is customized to what is important for us to know and learn. The facility is clean, the students friendly and the equipment is in new condition. Overall, I have had a great experience each time and I will continue to take computer classes exclusively here! read more

The business writing class with Carol was awesome! She is so much fun and very knowledgeable about the material covered in the course. There were so many things I learned from this class and realized that there were some things I was doing that were incorrect! I'm happy to have taken this class and hope to take it again in the future. I would definitely recommend this class to others, this will really help me in my workplace and interacting with others. Also, the facility was beautiful and had a breathtaking view! GREAT CLASS, GREAT JOB!!! read more

I took a Customer Service class that I enjoyed. I thought that most of the information was very useful, and I took away a few good key points for my job. The only downside was that there was a PPT handout to take notes on, but the handout didn't match what was being shown on the screen. The handout must have been an older PPT deck because a lot of the slides were different and in a different order. I should have disregarded the handout altogether, but instead I let it distract me trying to match the slides to the paper. read more

Took the customer service class last week. it was AMAZING! Carol is absolutely brilliant in what she does. I waked into the class with a bad attitude thinking I'm going to sit here and listen for the next 6 hours and not learn much. My attitude changed with 1 minute of this class. It was informative, fun, interesting, etc... I learned so many new things on how to provide better customer service not only verbally but by writing as well. Carol was great from start to finish. I came back to work and went directly to my branch manager and recommended that everyone in our company should take this class. I loved it and will definitely take another class with Carol. -Mariya Pozikov read more

Took an excel course at Training Connection, and learned a lot! Carol, the instructor, was excellent. She was very knowledgeable, patient, and detailed. I highly recommend the courses. The computer labs are clean and modern. They offer free teas, coffee, and a variety of other drinks. I work in downtown LA so I took an uber to the location. Easy to find. I look forward to taking many more courses. read more

I've taken both the InDesign (with Hanna) & Photoshop (with Beverly) bootcamps at Training Connection and both have gone very well. The instructors are experts in their fields and truly have a passion for it. The real-world projects are very helpful and they provide you with templates and step by step instructions you can take home and work off of which is amazing. Beverly really took the time to answer our questions and make sure we understood everything rather than just following steps blindly. I definitely recommend getting a class with her! Parking is $22 daily however there is a $10 cash only parking up the street. The office is really clean and taken care of. Computers are up to date and work great. There's a kitchen/lounge area with a refrigerator & microwave. Their coffee machine is addicting! Overall highly recommend Training Connection! read more

Just completed the 2 day Project Management class with Carol and her experience as a PM and the method in which she taught the class was informative and enlightening. She shared so many of her own work experiences and gave us templates that will save hours of time. We created our own company and Carol walked us through the 5 step PM process making the class fun and engaging us to work together as a team. We were also given a PM book that covers everything needed to study for the PMP certification. I was so satisfied with Carol and the staff at Training Connection that I have signed up for the MS Project class. read more

Training Connection far exceeded my expectations. I walked into their office pleasantly surprised. Beautiful office space with 6/7 different classrooms filled with computers for their trainings. I was there for an Excel course as Carol as my instructor. Not only is she extremely knowledgable, but personable. She was very helpful and made the class enjoyable for all. I took away so much from the course. I would highly recommend! read more

The Training Connection was just what I needed. Being a novice Excel user I enrolled in the Excel 1 class. I was given a Level 1 Instruction booklet and was able to use it throughout the daylong class. Computers, classroom, break room were all top notch and clean. Our instructor was both patient and informative. She was able to take time with the students who needed extra help (me), but, didn't slow down the overall class. I will be taking the Excel 2 class in December as I've discovered Excel is a great program that I'm now using more and more. I highly recommend The Training Connection. read more

Great experience. The offices and training rooms are nice and clean and the equipment is up to date. The location is also great with a lot of places around for lunch. The trainer was very competent and explained everything very detailed. She took the time to explain things which were unclear and answered all questions very detailed. I can recommend Training Connection to everyone who wants to do trainings to improve their skills. read more

I took both the intermediate and advance Excel courses and found them to be a great source of information. My instructors were Steven and Carol. Though they each had different styles of teaching, I learned a lot and would recommend taking classes at Training Connection. The equipment was up-to-date, the instruction was great, and for me, the location was perfect. I immediately shared hot keys, functions, and knowledge with friends and co-workers and they appreciated it as well. Thank you! read more

Wow. I see only 10 reviews. What happened? I took two different courses with Training Connection, and I'm glad that my organization chose them. I had a two day course for Microsoft word, and I am more equipped with the knowledge I need to advance in my career. The place is very clean, customer service is top notch and they supply coffee, tea and water. If anyone wants hands-on training for any computer softwares, Training Connection is definitely the place to go. Thank you Training Connection. read more

I used training Connection for a business etiquette course through my employer. The teacher was amazing and the content was very helpful.

I took an advanced power point class and Carol, the instructor, left no stone unturned. She made sure all of our questions were answered and tailored the class to our needs. A great instructor with a keen sense of humor. Our class was small and it was like private tutoring. She also fit the class to our schedule, she gave us the choice to take a short lunch break and leave for home earlier or take the full hour and stay until the scheduled end. I wouldn't hesitate to take a class at Training Connection in the future. read more

I've just completed my second course at Training Connection and it was just a great as the first class. A few of my thoughts on each class appear below: Adobe Acrobat Pro The first class I took was a one one one course that I was able to customize specifically to a project that I was working on using Adobe Acrobat Pro. My instructor was very knowledgeable and entertaining and was able to give me a variety of tips and tricks for using the software. After taking the class, I was immediately able to complete my project and utilize my new skills to pitch other projects to my clients. Graphics Design Package So far I have completed only the Illustrator Fundamentals course in this package. Again the instructor was both very knowledgeable and entertaining. I left each day wondering where all the time went. I finally feel like I have the basic skills needed to use my Wacom tablet! If you are looking for an excellent educational experience in a great environment I would highly recommend the Training Connection! read more

Excel training was fantastic! I took Level 2 and 3. Very relevant, clear instruction. I have taken many online classes and it just doesn't compare to in-person instruction. The reference books received are great tools for post-instruction, because my brain was swimming with information and excited about what to do next and how I can apply everything learned. Thank you Training Connection for a great couple days of learning! read more

I thought the place was great. Carol was patient, thorough and nice. I took this class last week and in fact have the training book at my desk right now as I type this review. The training exceeded my expectations, and helped me. One has the option to take the course again for no additional fee. I will definitely do this. The coffee machine was fabulous. My only suggestion would be to avoid the history of Excel. That part I found was not relevant to the learning part. read more

I took a MS Access Intro course with Chris. The class was awesome! Chris took his time guiding us through the different features of Access. I plan to go back and take the rest of the MS access level courses in the months ahead. The place is really nice too. They have a microwave and a refrigerator so you can bring your lunch. And the free coffee machine it GREAT! That made it even better! read more

I took two Excel classes. After finding the first day with Chris so helpful, I immediately enrolled in day two. The environment is incredibly friendly and the class is taught at an appropriate speed for the students. It was not intimidating. I learned a lot and look forward to utilizing these skills for work. I hope to take more classes at the Training Connection. read more

I took the week long After Effects class. Kristian was great. He covered a lot of ground and offered his email for future questions. The class also provides a book to take home, and they let you take the entire class (or only what you want) over again, which is wonderful because of how much the class covers! I would highly recommend this class as a quick "get up and running" program. read more

I work as a technology trainer and my experience at Training Connection was stellar. Jeff's handling of the HTML/CSS Web class was so thorough - while I knew a few of the basics going in, Jeff gave context to what I already knew that made it much more meaningful, and brought my skills up to a much more advanced level (and this was the basics class). And how great is it that I can re-take the class for free in the next six months if I need a refresher?! I'm hoping that several of my colleagues can take advantage of the basics class, and I'd love to come back for the advanced sessions. The facility is top-notch (with superb coffee!), and even the location is so easy (five minutes off the freeway with easy parking). We're really happy we discovered Training Connection! read more

I am a big fan of Training Connection. I use excel daily and still learned a lot from taking the level three class. The instructor, Chris, went at a good pace and made sure everyone understood. Chris made the training fun and I felt like he really explained how you can use different formulas and functions in different ways. I would highly recommend to friends and collogues. I will be back for level 4! read more

The class was well organized and had a lot of good information. I was self taught in Microsoft Project before I took this class and this filled in a lot of the blanks that YouTube and the book weren't clear on. The instructor was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my questions as well as take a look at my existing schedule to give me some tips on how to make it better. read more

Took an excel training class with Steve at my company. Steve was great. He was energetic, funny, very engaging with the group and made the excel learning process very easy and understandable. I definitely would refer him to anyone looking to learn more on excel. read more

I took the Training Connection's "Photoshop Bootcamp". It is set up for options to take it for one day, three days, or the full five days, which includes a Thursday and Friday advanced class. They have computers for both Mac and PC users. Our instructor Beverly Hauwing was very friendly and definitely knew her material. Her pace, in my opinion, was extremely fast, so get ready. I listened carefully and went home and did all the exercises again with the books. There were two very well written straight-forward books that are now invaluable to me, as I am practicing all we learned dozens of times. Beverly is also a wonderful photographer who used her photos from around the world in class to practice all the Photoshop techniques. My husband and I went to Santa Monica to see a gorgeous photograph of hers in a gallery following the class. The staff, Jeff, and Billy were exceptionally friendly and helpful, greeting us every morning with a smile and helpful information such as: Parking at the building is $22 per day, but for those willing to walk a few short blocks up Wilshire Blvd., there is a lot for $10 per day. One GREAT perk to this program is that once you pay for the workshop, you can repeat it again for FREE at a future time. (Might be a different teacher depending on timeline). I felt the workshop was very well run. I recommend it to anyone wanting to take a very intensive, informative, fast moving Photoshop class. Enjoy! read more

Took Intermediate - Level 4 Excel (with Chris), and Advanced PowerPoint (with Carol.) All classes were great. The teachers were both awesome, and went at a great pace. There is plenty of room for additional questions on specific areas you need additional training in. I would definitely recommend Training Connection and both of these teachers to anyone looking to learn new Excel or PowerPoint skills. read more

Recently completed an InDesign course at Training Connection. This Adobe program has so many tools and menus, it's really intimidating. My instructor was Beverly, who was absolutely delightful. We were very fortunate and only had 4 students in class, she was very patient with all our questions. We navigated through 5 projects, that were very practical and relatable to any industry. Beverly outlined it all step by step, and took out the confusion factor. Facility was great; very clean, bright and nice terminals. Only negative is the price of parking in a downtown high-rise, $22 per/day. Good grief just build that into the price of the course and validate. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed attending the Level 4 Macros & VBA training. My instructor was not only knowledgeable on the skill, but he was very helpful in teaching me how to use these in my daily work functions which was my reason for taking the course. read more

good class, great location and even better parking. The teacher knew her stuff and had all the answers. I was with 3 others from my office, we all came with a list of questions and left with answers. read more

I was fortunate to take the excel 3 training with Chris, he is a phenomenal instructor. He is clear, makes the learning curve easy and even adds a bit of humor. Should you be looking to advance your skills, this is the place to go. Atmosphere is clean, professional and inviting. They rock!! read more

I took a Microsoft Excel course for Intermediate and Advance users, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the trainer Chris was very thorough and patient. No students were left behind wondering how a formula was created, or what purpose it served. I highly recommend taking Excel with Chris as he seemed to be extremely knowledgeable in all the minute functions of Excel. And although I was already a intermediate user, I'd recommend going back to Excel 1, just to discover all the cool and handy functions you may not have known existed within Excel. Good luck! read more

I took the Photoshop Quick Start last month and InDesign Fundamentals this month for work. Both courses were with Kristian, who was a fantastic teacher - clearly passionate about the material, knowledgable and able to answer almost any question we had. The small class sizes meant we could ask any questions as we went along. The courses moved quickly, so we learnt a lot in just one or three days. Would definitely recommend and consider taking more courses here in the future. read more

Parking was easy to find because I used their parking structure (it was $22 for the whole day). When I walked into the room, I was greeted right away. I was also given a little tour. They have a cafe area with free coffee and tea. It was clean and had a nice view! My instructor was Steve and he was awesome! His personality lit up the room. One thing I really enjoyed was how small the class was. When I went, there were only 9 of us. I walked in not expecting to learn much since it was only the intro to Excel class, but I walked away with a lot more than I expected to! I would definitely recommend Training Connections to those who are looking for some training with Excel. I'm planning on taking the intermediate Excel course here too! read more

I had a great experience with the 2 day advanced Photoshop training. Beverly is an incredibly effective instructor. She is highly knowledgeable in Photoshop and made learning really fun. The training is project based so the content is taught and then we apply it. I find this is a great way to retain the information and make it relevant. I highly recommend Training Connection and I hope to attend more classes! read more

I attended the Effective Presentations course with Carol and really enjoyed all of the great public speaking techniques that I learned. Carol was a wonderful instructor and I look forward to taking another course from her. I have already recommended the course to some friends and would recommend it to anyone else reading this! read more

I greatly enjoyed and benefited from the intermediate excel class. The teacher, Carol, was knowledgeable, well-spoken and energetic. The pace of the class was perfect. We covered a lot of material, which is to be expected in one day class. However, I didn't feel like we moved too quickly through the information. I as able to absorb a lot of new information. I am very excited to begin applying all that I learned to my job and I can't wait to take the next level up! read more

Nice facility and great teachers. I highly recommend Training Connection as your introduction to Photoshop. A ton of information is covered and Chana was an incredibly patient teacher! read more

This was a really good class and the teacher was great. It was beginners excel, but I knew some excel already and I still learned a lot. He kept us entertained and busy, it wasn't slow or boring. He was patient and knowledgeable. The facilities were really nice and clean, the computers and programs were all up to date, and again, the teacher was really great! I definitely want to take the next level up with him and I would recommend this course if anyone is looking to learn excel. read more

I took a Presentation class with Carol at the Training Connection recently and I received some valuable tips and tools to be into practice in my work. Carol was terrific and took the time to give one-on-one training to us students. I can honestly say I walked away with tools that will help me in my career. read more
