Slap bang in the middle of the City’s (and the nation’s) legal quarter, this is the place where ambitious people can start a course at any time and study at times to suit them during the centre’s long opening hours, which include daytimes, evenings and Saturdays.Our Holborn Training Centre

Using self-paced training with on-site training support at its core, the centre is able to offer training in much the same style as gym membership. That is to say, you pay your fee and attend when it suits you.

The result is that students can decide how quickly or how slowly they complete their training programmes.

Many get through their studies as quickly as they can while others linger longer, enjoying being in a part of the city which, although only a short walk from Covent Garden, is rarely visited by tourists. We like to keep it a bit of a secret!

Students constantly tell us how they enjoy lunch in the secret cloister café in Temple, walk past the British Museum, swing by Dickens’ “Olde Curiosity Shoppe” and slip through the beautiful Lincolns Inn Fields on their way to see us.

Our range of training courses in Central and West is extensive and includes PA Courses, Excel and Admin Courses, Pitman's Online English Courses, , Minute Taking, Receptionist and Medical Receptionist Courses with City & Guilds/AMSPAR, AAT Accounting & AAT Bookkeeping and the ECDL online (European Computer Driving Licence) courses.
