Macresource Computer Training specialise in providing quality IT training on a variety of web technologies and computer software packages, especially those by Adobe. These software environments have become the standard for web and multimedia development since they empower companies to develop web solutions more quickly than ever. We offer three types of computer training.

Public Training Courses
We run scheduled courses, at our central London training centre, on several popular software packages such as Dreamweaver and Flash. Our training courses, which are open to anyone, are ideal for companies who only wish to have one or two delegates trained and who prefer to have the training done away from the office. Scheduled training courses are also ideal for private individuals wishing to develop their software skills.

Closed, or private, courses are ideal for those companies or individuals who require training, away from their office, but which is tailored to their specific requirements.

On-site Training Courses
