Courses in Manchester

We welcome all kinds of students from all over Manchester, whether employed or unemployed, skilled and experienced or total beginners.

The great thing about the Pitman Training method, apart from the timetable flexibility, is that you can start a course at any time. There’s no waiting for term to start, so you can get your feet under the table, earn your qualification and get into your new career, fast. Come and visit us and learn more about how we could help you get to the top of your chosen career?

When you study with us, you’ll learn how to use the latest technology to a level most people don’t even realise exists.

That’s why our students are so sought after by employers – there are few people who have the depth of skill and the knowledge of how to apply it at work as Pitman Training students.

That’s why from time to time, we even get unadvertised jobs passed through to us by employers eager to snap up highly skilled people before they enrol with employment agencies.

Our training centre in Manchester is rated 4.7 out of 5 based on 21 Google reviews. See all reviews.

Long opening hours, flexi-attendance, expert trainers and a central Manchester location... How good can it get?

Well, wait till you see the quality of our training materials and the way the courses are delivered. It’s truly something different!

Not only that, but most of our famous diploma programmes have an element of tailorability to them, enabling students to match their interests and intrinsic abilities to the needs of the jobs market.

That’s probably why our students have such a high exam pass rate, with the majority scooping distinctions!

Our goal is “changing lives, building futures” and we try hard to apply that vision to everything we do for our students, with the focus on giving them the skills to get into high-status, well-paid careers.

The best way to understand why we’re so different is to come and visit us. You could even have a demo on a course while you’re here.
