Private Courses
The following courses are available for those who
wish to commission private in-house courses to be held
on their premises or at a hired venue. We are
happy to provide this training in any location and
regularly provide these courses interstate.
There are a number motivations which lead clients to
book in-house training. They include:
- inclusion in graduate induction
programs;
- convenience of internal program;
- requirement for some customisation to include
client materials;
- option to schedule training to suit employees'
and company's calendars;
- workgroup and team development;
- availability in client location rather than at
public venues.
The following items cover the various matters to be
considered in arranging private in-house training.
- Courses Available for In-house Presentation
- Financial Analysis Certificate (FAC)
Financial Analysis Systems Certificate (FAS)
Charting Master Class (CMC)
- Time Commitment
- The FAC and the FAS are both 48 hour courses.
They are usually presented over six days in three
sessions of two days spread out over one to two
months. The CMC is an eight hour course which
is presented on a single day.
- Subject to availability, the courses can be
booked for any eight hour period between 8.00am and
9.00pm on weekdays and 9.00am and 5.00pm on
weekends.
- Costs and Inclusions
- Standard course fees cover the presenter, or
presenters depending upon cohort size, the
presenter's PC, presenter's materials, student
materials and media. Venue, equipment and
meals are the responsibility of the client.
Course fees will be quoted upon enquiry.
- Terms are for settlement in full prior to
commencement.
- Training Venue
- The training venue is the responsibility of the
client. The client may opt to use their own
facilities, or book external facilities. The
facility should consist of a training room and a
break-out area for meals and breaks.
- The training room may be any suitably sized room
that can accommodate the booked students together
with the computer equipment discussed below.
- We can assist with the hire of a suitable venue
at extra cost, if required.
- Equipment Requirements
- The facility should provide one personal
computer, either desktop or notebook, for each
student enrolled. It is not necessary that the
computers be either networked or have access to a
printer.
- Data projection facilities are required for the
presentation of this course as it improves the
delivery of the material, especially with larger
groups. The training room should include a large
whiteboard.
- We can assist with the hire of suitable
notebooks with the required software and/or a data
projector at an extra cost, if required.
- Software Requirements
- The computers to be used by the students for the
training should have either Windows NT, XP or Vista
correctly installed and have any language version of
Excel 97 or later correctly installed, with all
relevant service patches applied.
- It is preferable that all computers have the
same version of Excel installed, however, we have
experience at working in environments with mixed
versions and mixed language versions. If we will be
working with non-English language versions or a
mixture of English and non-English language
versions, we would appreciate advance notice,
although the materials will work suitably with some
minor exceptions in all language versions.
- Meals & Refreshments
- Meals (if they are to be included) and
refreshments are the responsibility of the client.
It is recommended that they be provided to keep the
attendees together in the break-out room during
breaks and avoid distractions to the running of the
courses and time lost if they have to find meals
themselves.
- We can assist with the provision of catering at
an extra cost, if required.
- Certificates & Assessment
- An optional assessment may be undertaken at the
end of the course and will involve allocating four
to five hours of the final day to this process.
The students work in groups to solve workshop type
problems. A grade is awarded to each group and
shared by the participants in that group.
Grades are awarded at Pass, Credit, Distinction and
High Distinction grades.
- For courses booked through Clarkson ITT, the
certificates for completion or grade are issued by
Clarkson ITT and may be co-branded with the client
by prior arrangement. For courses booked
through UTS, the certificates are awarded by UTS.
- Revision for Free
- Students who have been paid for by a client in
any one course are not charged for again if they choose to
attend some or all of the sessions of that course
when offered again privately at that client. A
fee will be charged to upgrade the notes so
that the student has the same notes as are being
used by the rest of the class, if they request it..
- Ongoing Support
- We do not have a specific policy on ongoing
support. However, any politely phrased request
from a past student which is based on materials taught or related
material will receive a
response, although this may be delayed, depending
upon our commitments. This can be very
important in assisting the student to bed down their
newly won knowledge.
- We generally limit the advice and
assistance however, to the subject areas covered in
the course. For instance, we do not offer
macro or VBA support for modelling students and vice
versa.
