Student Testimonials
I couldn’t recommend Pitman Training enough. The girls in the office were so helpful and supportive the entire time I was completing my diploma course and after. I dont think I could fault a single thing with them, I had such a pleasant experience completing my course here. I would definitely recommend Pitman Training (and have already done so) to anyone looking to gain some further qualifications and further their careers.
Doireann Ni Thuama Co. Cork
Making the first step is the hardest. Pitman made it very easy for me to do. They offer a fantastic range of courses. The material is very easy to follow and set up in a way that makes it very easy to use. The staff in Cork have always been fantastic to me and encouraged me all the way. Even when, I felt like giving up myself. I can’t say enough about how happy I am to have taken the first step with Pitman.
Karena Hunter
Office Manager Diploma Student
I was unemployed when I started with Pitman Training. Within 2 months of starting my course, I started a new job. While also getting invited for a couple of interviews. I think the skills; I learned in the Effective Communications in Business, modules really helped me with this. I was able to improve my CV application letter writing, which I think really helped. 1 year on, I’m busier than ever, so thanks to everyone at Pitman Training for your help and support.
Edel Fitzgibbon
Business and Management Diploma Student
Training with Pitman Training was the best investment of my life. I was able to train in my free time outside of my shift work, and with my new Office Manager Diploma qualification, I got a new job that I love.
