Everything I wanted from the course and more, Marion was approachable, I felt comfortable and at ease.

Marion was great. She made the day very interesting and adapted it well to suit individual needs.
Laura – Admin Assistant – Better Business Writing
“In the last year I successfully completed and passed Sage Accounting and Sage Payroll Computer Courses with Pitman Training. Before my training I was looking for a job, but realised that I needed more qualifications in order to get my ideal job.
I am now applying for jobs and feel more equipped and confident. I am searching the job sites and sending my CV. I know it’s only a matter of time until I have the job I desire.
My learning time at Pitman Training was a very happy time for me. I felt warmly welcomed each day and this enabled me to learn quickly. The staff were extremely professional, friendly and helpful and the atmosphere was very relaxed. I so enjoyed my Courses and it really was learning made easy.
I wish to Thank each member of Pitman Training Staff. I have never enjoyed a learning experience as much as I enjoyed my time with you.
Many Thanks!”
GC – Sage
“I really enjoyed the Diploma which I am sure will improve my career prospects. I am looking forward to putting what I learned into practice.”
CC – Diploma
They seemed to be so impressed that I had been at Pitman Training to do the training. I cannot believe how doing one course can transform your job area.
J M – Management Support Officer
I successfully completed Executive PA Diploma at Pitman in 2013. With the help of Pitman training I also gained Microsoft 2010 Master Qualification which enabled me to become a confident and proficient administrator in record times.

“I had been having trouble making the databases at work behave themselves but every problem that I had been having has been dealt with today.”
Access Level 2 A M——-Administration Co-ordinator
“I studied the Executive PA Diploma with Pitman. I started studying it in January 2013, it was a great way to start the new year.
Before training I was working in a pub. Having graduated from Glasgow University with an English degree, I found it very difficult to get a job and to know what jobs to apply for. I began working in a hotel for three years before I realised no matter how good I was at my job or how many shifts I had done, there was no room for growth.
Training really helped me, it helped me get some focus and direction and it was a great way to learn new skills. It allowed me to get up to speed with all the Microsoft packages and to get back into the way of using computing skills. It also allowed me to broaden my job search as I now had skills I didn’t have before and skills that companies were looking for.
I now work at St Margaret of Scotland Hospice, which I am really enjoying, where I have been employed as a Receptionist and Medical Secretary.
I really enjoyed my Pitman course, all the staff were very friendly and always willing to help out with any problems. I definitely feel if I hadn’t done the Pitman course I would have struggled for even longer to find a job.”
LN – Executive PA Diploma
I have now come to the end of my courses in finance, and I should like to say how impressed I was with the quality of training I received through them all.
The knowledge I have gained has consolidated and enhanced my previous experience in a number of accounts jobs over the years, and given me new confidence in my skills and abilities to truly pursue bookkeeping as a specialist career. There are certainly many businesses out there that really need competent “accounting technicians”.
As soon as I had completed my Sageline 50 Accounts course, I got a second job using both this training and the previous course I completed, Excel Proficient. My training in Manual PAYE and Sage Payroll has enabled me to take over the wages responsibility in my other part-time bookkeeping job, and I have also set up a stock control system on the laptop using Excel spread sheets.There is also a possibility of taking on a further job working from home a couple of afternoons / evenings a week, doing the accounts for another local business using Sage on a laptop.
I am delighted with the “instant” results my training with yourselves have produced – the investment of time, money and effort was definitely worthwhile, now that I am reaping rewards well beyond my original expectations…. even at my time of life (over 50), retraining to specialist level in accounts has been an excellent decision.
THANK YOU!
DG – Accounting Technician Diploma
The tutor knew her role very well, she was happy to answer questions and gave good advice on situations.
Elsamarie – Receptionist – Receptionist Seminar
“The course exceeded my expectations and I would recommend it to all my colleagues and will let our training department know that it was excellent”
Bob—–Co-ordinator—–Voluntary Sector
“I decided to study for Pitman’s Executive PA Diploma last year after having been out of work for some time. This turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life and a turning point for the better.
As I was unemployed at that time, I planned to complete my course in a short space of time and attended Pitman Training College, Edinburgh on a daily basis.
The Pitman staff and tutors were caring and attentive and I could approach them at any time for help. I never felt pressurised knowing that I could complete the modules at my own pace. The course definitely gave me the confidence and ability to successfully apply for positions knowing that I had a good head start in comparison with so many other people in the job market. I started to apply for positions towards the end of my course and was fortunate to immediately secure a temporary post in an organisation providing housing and support for older people in 25 locations across Scotland.
I am now pleased to report that I have been made a permanent employee and am thoroughly enjoying my position there.
I completed the course and, as I had chosen legal modules as electives, I received my Legal Secretarial Diploma as well as my Executive PA Diploma with Shorthand, both with distinction.
I would like to thank Pitman and the wonderful tutors for the fantastic training and assistance they have given me. I could not have done it without them and I have no hesitation in recommending the College to those wishing to improve their skills and to making themselves more employable.
Pitman can literally change your life!”
JM – Legal/Executive PA Diploma
I was recently promoted to secretary to the Clinical Director at the Princess Royal Maternity in Glasgow. The job is varied, interesting and very well paid. I still have fond memories of my days at Pitman Training.
E L – Medical Secretary to the Clinical Director
‘’Over the past two years we have used Pitman Training for a number of courses and the feedback has always been excellent.
I have personally been on two – Delegation Skills and Supervisory Skills, both proved to be well constructed, interactive and of great use not just in the workplace but as useful tools in general life.
One of our other teams have used their Project Management course to great effect. It was carried out by someone who has masses of experience in Project Management so gave a solid practical slant rather than a Trainer delivering a course.It would be fair to say that the two courses that I attended were the same.
On the whole I find them extremely professional, also great if you want a bespoke course.
I have over the years used a variety of companies and Pitman always seem to deliver exactly what you want.’’
Elma C——HR Administrator (Training)—–NHS Education for Scotland
B D – Project Administrator
Our trainer was excellent, by bringing real life examples it makes it easier to put into context.
Lesley – Operational Risk Analyst – Meetings and Minutes
I completely understood the topics covered and everything was explained very well. Thank you!
Abbi – Receptionist Seminar
“Before I started my training at Pitman I was unemployed, I had been working as a accounts assistant in a hotel for three years and although my last job was in accounting I had no knowledge or understanding of SageLine 50 Computerised Accounting, which is widely used throughout many organisations, so it was important for me to learn this accounting software.
I found all the staff really helpful in guiding and advising me throughout the course and when I had finished they suggested I should take the Computerised Sage 50 Payroll course to complement further my skills.
On finishing both courses, I was also advised by the staff to take the external examinations from the International Association of Bookkeepers (IAB) in both of the courses I had studied. Once I finished the IAB exams in June 2013 I became committed in searching for a job in an accountancy position. The knowledge I had gained and the results of the courses enhanced my C.V and I felt much more confident when applying for jobs.
After two months I managed to secure three interviews, two of which offered me jobs. I accepted a full time sales ledger assistant position in Skyscanner.
I would like to thank Pitman Training staff for all their help and support which has helped me to secure the job that I wanted.”
MR – Sage
I finished a Pitman Secretarial Diploma in 2008 and after one month working as a temp. I was lucky enough to be offered a permanent job as Clerical/Admin Assistant which is where I am still working now.
Learning to touch type at Pitman definitely helped to secure the job, and also having a certificate from all the units of the secretarial diploma which showed that I could use Microsoft Office programs competently.
I took the option to study from home as living in Perth , it meant I could fit in work around the kids school hours. Though I did enjoy going into Edinburgh occasionally to do Outlook, and Audio. The course was really straightforward, and the tests were an enjoyable challenge.
I love being able to touch type, and it will be useful for the rest of my life, in whatever job I do. I have even got my children started on the BBC’s cool typing lessons for kids, where singing animals encourage you, and I hope that they will be able to type by the time they are teenagers.
All the trainers at Pitman were really helpful, and always ready to explain things, when I phoned or emailed with questions.
GA – Secretarial Diploma
“I’m presently studying an ECDL course with Pitman Training.
Prior to enrolling I had been made redundant from my post as a Publications Information Assistant, due to departmental re-structuring, within the media department of Strathclyde Police. As the workplace is constantly evolving, I decided to upgrade my skills and ECDL seemed the obvious choice – for me. The course has helped me gain the confidence to apply for jobs again, even those I’d previously considered outwith my comfort zone.
What I’ve enjoyed most about the course is the fact professionals are on hand if you have any problems, you can work at your own pace and the hours are flexible.However, for me, what makes Pitman Training so successful is its staff. They are friendly, approachable and very encouraging. Their cheery disposition makes it a joy to learn.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pitman Training.”
JW – ECDL
I am now confident in managing manipulative behaviour and also how to manage staff that just do their own thing.
Lorna – Senior Staff Nurse – Conflict Management
The course content was clear and relevant. I met the objectives I came with.
Leanne – Sales Executive – PowerPoint
“I started doing a Secretarial Diploma at Pitman because I had been working in retail since graduating from university in 2008. I had pretty good admin skills but no qualifications and felt like I was stuck in a rut. Pitman was a perfect fit for me because I was working shifts at my job at Glasgow Science Centre and could come in whenever I was free.
At first I thought I was just going to be getting a qualification for skills I already had but I actually learned a lot more than I expected. Modules like Effective Business Communication were helpful and I did electives in Access and Introduction to Medical Secretary which was extremely helpful in getting my new job.
In May 2013, before I had even completed my diploma, I started my job as an Audio Typist for the NHS. I had been searching the NHS pages before I started my diploma and it took the help of Pitman to actually help me find a job. My typing and audio typing skills along with the medical terminology learned in Pitman have been essential in my progress within my job with my manager telling me she feels I have a career in the NHS ahead of me.
I just discovered today that I received a distinction for my diploma and am now thinking of where to move up within my new sector. Without Pitman, I don’t think I would have been able to get out of retail so I’m very happy to have chosen to take this course!”
EJ – Secretarial Diploma
It took me a day to find a job after I left the course. The diploma taught me how to type well and use all the necessary computer programmes to the point where I am helping others at work with their queries about Excel and Access.
R G – PA to Consultant Cardiologist
Excellent.
Alison – Receptionist – Outlook
“After 12 years working for an airline I decided to make a career change and started looking into various training companies. I selected Pitman Training based on their helpfulness and support.
I started studying in August of 2007 and initially signed up for Comptia’s A+ to ensure I was making the right choice. After completing this with the great help I got from John and Martin I then went on to study for my MCSA.
Before completing my course I started applying for a few jobs and was lucky to secure a position with BCF Technology as an IT support engineer. I have no doubt that taking this course had a lot to do with their decision.
Throughout my involvement with Pitman Training I received nothing but encouragement from all the staff and fellow students, which certainly made learning easier and more enjoyable. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Pitman Training to anyone that asked and will be using them for any future training I may need to undergo.”
MM – IT Technical
“I studied a Pitman Accounting Technician Diploma. My intention was to use the course to complement my accounting qualification and as a return to work plan in my chosen career area.
Since my training, I believe that the course has assisted me in that I am now being trained for cash office duties and procedures. I have as well been given a chance on a volunteer basis by one of the housing association in their accounts departments through courtesy of Central Scotland Racial Equality Council, where am having a chance to work with Sage Line 50 v12 and Sage payroll. Am drawing heavily from what I have learnt in Pitman Training.
I would lik to thank all the staff at Pitman and especially the Supervisors who were very helpful whenever I needed assistance.
Having been allowed to pay for the Course on monthly instalments, making it possible for me to afford the Course in easy instalments.
The fact that you can be able to programme your time of attendance is a big plus to the college.
The courses are very well presented in a methodical manner that makes it easy to follow and would recommend to others who are looking forward for training.”
EK – Accounting Technician Diploma
“The Executive PA course is by far the best course I have attended. Our Trainer was a fantastic tutor and really knew her subject, she was able to communicate parts of the course content with her own real life experiences. I have attended many courses in the past, some of which were quite boring but I must say the tutor had my full attention over the course of the two days.
The size of class was also perfect, which allowed everyone to have their say and share similar experiences. Overall all, it was a very enjoyable course and I would be keen to attend other relevant courses”
Michelle Anderson—–PA—–Airtricity
Very good, no improvements to suggest. Marion was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Joyce – Governance manager – Better Business Writing
‘’Both Carol & Liz attended the Professional Receptionist Training course on Friday 31st January in Edinburgh held by Pitman Training. Both enjoyed the course and thought it was beneficial and relevant to their place of employment.
Since the course they both feel more confident and understand a lot more about what is required of a Receptionist.’’
Professional Receptionist
“I recently studied Marketing Essential with Pitman Training. I currently deal with marketing in my business. As Managing Director and Marketing Director I felt it necessary to gain some formal training in marketing.
Pitman Training’s course allowed me to study at my own pace in my own time and at my convenience – thus alleviating the stress that returning to study can cause. The on hand tutors provided efficient and effective back up and the training room was a peaceful and relaxed area to study.
I thoroughly recommend Pitman Training – and even signed up for a Diploma course with them as a direct result of enjoying the Marketing Essentials Course.”
GS – Marketing Essentials
“Working as a secretary with Axis Media I felt that I needed to brush up my skills on some of the Office programmes that I was using as part of my job as well as gaining a recognised qualification. The Fast Track Diploma did this for me, and clarified some of the “mysteries” surrounding programmes such as Access which I had used slightly but never fully explored.
The course books and audio CD were clear and easy to follow, and the training staff were all very friendly and helpful, to the point of offering advice even after the course had finished.
Their unfailing cheeriness and sense of humour (together with the excellent facilities and pleasant working surroundings) added to the good atmosphere at the Pitman’s centre which is why I’ve now come back to do another course!”
PF – Fast Track Diploma
“When I first came to see you I found myself aged 50 with no skills to offer the modern workplace and I had no idea how I would earn a living and support myself financially. I decided to undertake the Legal Secretarial Diploma and, at first, it felt like I had such a huge mountain to climb. However, I kept reminding myself of that well worn quote that, even the longest journey begins with one small step. I was able to study as and when I could and fit it around all the personal changes that were going on in my life.
With the patience, help and support and encouragement of everyone at Pitman I gained my diploma. However, I wasn’t sure if being a legal secretary was what I wanted to do so I decided to temp for a while to gain experience and ‘test the waters’. Since then, I have been a Medical Secretary, Office Manager in a very busy recruitment consultancy and, more recently, Administrator in a small firm of quantity surveyors.
At the end of last year I decided to start looking for a permanent post and have just been offered a part-time position as Audio Typist/Medical Secretary. This will bring together my previous nursing experience and knowledge of medical terminology with all that I have learned at Pitman and consolidated while temping.
I have such fond memories of the training room and found all the staff to be friendly and helpful. I would recommend the courses to anyone and wish I had discovered Pitman years ago. Big thanks to you all.”
JG – Legal Secretarial Diploma
I found learning at Pitman Training was enjoyable, which makes all the difference. It was probably one of the best decisions I have made in the last decade.
S E
Julie tailored the course excellently to the different interests/problems of the participants. She sought out appropriate material related to our fields of work. I felt the small course size was excellent.
Rachel – Manager – Influencing Skills
Very engaging, simplified a lot of complex issues to meet the needs of the audience. Genuinely found both days very fascinating – very rare that I can listen to someone speak for 2 days and not get bored, but Julie achieved this! Can’t wait to try out my new tools and techniques!
Sarah-Louise – Business Development Executive – Influencing Skills
I have a job with the Inland Revenue as a Revenue Assistant. I enjoyed your course’s flexibility the most, as it was at my own pace.
J M – Inland Revenue Assistant
High praise. Marion drew from her own experiences which I appreciated. She was able to help us with our individual issues. She listed to us and adapted her training to suit our needs.
Alanna – Office Manager/PA – Executive PA Seminar
I am really enjoying the challenge of my new career and appreciate all that Pitman Training did to make it possible.
J M – Medical Secretary
Everything needed was provided. Work booklets, pad, pen and pencil were all good quality.
Louise – PA – Speedwriting
“Having chosen not to go to University, and after a years work in the retail business, I was still unsure as to which career path I ultimately wanted to follow. I enrolled on the Executive PA Diploma course with Pitman Training School in Edinburgh in September 2008, knowing that it was highly respected amongst employers.
The course for me was an undoubted success. I completed the main Microsoft modules reasonably quickly – they proved to be very easy to follow and actually quite a lot of fun! I very much enjoyed having the flexibility to choose which elective courses to do, and I was pleased to be given the choice of seminars as well as computer programmes. I have completed two seminars; both were great fun, and whereas I had found Pitman to be a quiet and studious place, suddenly we got to interact with other students and I met some great people.
I now have the role of Personal Assistant to an Art Broker in Edinburgh, which I found through word of mouth. All that I learnt during my time in Pitman has certainly now been put to use – especially the PA Seminar, which focuses not only on the general office keeping but also on the more personal and, often hugely overlooked aspects. Approximately two months elapsed between my finishing the main bulk of the course and securing my current job.
I also hold the position of Secretary on the board of the Edinburgh Charity Fashion Show. This is a non-profit and student run body that annually holds a highly respected Fashion Show in aid of three charities. My job involves organising meetings, taking minutes and being the administrative organiser. Without the Pitman background I would not have the skills that I now use daily.
I am moving to London in March, and thanks to my time at Pitman I am approaching agencies with confidence in myself and my abilities.”
HJ – Executive PA Diploma
From going from redundancy to this is just a great feeling! I actually love my job!
I C – Legal Secretary
First time being in Marion’s course and was an excellent experience, I need more!
Linda – Centre Manager – Conflict Management
My knowledge and understanding has vastly improved thanks to Callum. He was an excellent trainer, very patient and information was given clearly. I was able to understand all the formulas!
Lesley – Practice Manager – Excel
“Two years ago I was at a crossroads in my career as a Textile CAD designer and decided to expand my IT knowledge in the hope of broadening my job options.
Knowing the cost involved I began my research and found plenty of organizations who offered IT courses, but little else. Pitman Training on the other hand offered the support and the resources at an extremely competitive price.
Starting with the CompTIA A+ courses passing both these exams, I was extremely motivated to expand my knowledge further and receiving all the advice I needed from Pitman I am now one exam away from achieving my MCSA Microsoft qualification.
I am currently working in an IT support role which was initially a trainee position. But using the knowledge I have obtained through the courses at Pitman this has allowed me to become a supervisor a lot sooner than I had imagined.
I can’t recommend Pitman Training enough to people and although the courses I undertook where online and mostly home study, I enjoyed using the facilities finding the atmosphere very conducive to studying with very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff.”
IL – IT Technical
I believe that the only reason I was granted an interview let alone being offered this position, is because I had enrolled for your course at Pitman Training, Edinburgh.
F C – Medical Secretary
I came to Pitmans after leaving my job as a Customer Service Team Leader as I wanted to better myself & change careers. I studied the Executive PA Diploma, the course was very informative & could be done at my own pace. After completing the course I temped for 3 months & then I managed to get a job as an administrator through Office Angels. I am now working for an Interior Design company as PA to the Managing Director.
I would recommend Pitman to anyone who wants to improve themselves, I also made some new friends who I am still in contact with, as my circle of friends was very limited as I knew no-one when I moved to Edinburgh 3 years ago…
Many thanks again, I will be back!
LB – Executive PA Diploma
The skills that I learnt on the course come up time and time again on a daily basis and I am sure that the diploma on my CV has ensured interviews for a number of job applications.
L B – PR Assistant
“As I was due to retire from teaching within a few months, I was looking to update my computer skills in order to facilitate a move to part time work in administration/ reception. After a chat with Linda, I decided upon the Fast Track Microsoft Office Diploma. This enabled me to remember work I had previously done in class using Word and PowerPoint and to also extend my use of the programs. The three others modules covered were Outlook, Excel and Access. I have to say Access was the most challenging for me, even though I could see the logic in it!!
I thoroughly enjoyed working through the modules as you are able to work at your own pace and go over areas again and again until you feel comfortable with your understanding. Another very positive aspect to going in to the Centre to work is the invaluable help given by the staff who are friendly and on hand to iron out any little problems; they calm you down when frustration levels begin to rise at your inability to see where you have gone wrong and expertly set you back on the right pathway!
I am delighted to say that I completed the course with Distinction.
At the moment I am not working but am now veering towards working within the NHS. In order to further my chances with this I am currently studying Medical Terminology. Again a bit of a refresher for me as I have previously studied Anatomy and Physiology, but am enjoying it none the less as it makes me use my brain cells. Not a bad thing!
Although not working I have been looking at the Show Website for NHS workers and will also be looking to find temporary work through an agency, if the first option does not work out, in order to gain experience back in an office environment.
I am glad I made the decision to call Pitman and chat to Linda about options. I can be a bit of a learning junkie and once I have the bit between my teeth I may well find another area to study and keep me at Pitman that bit longer.
Very satisfied client”
