Instructor-led Training for Individuals

Are Your Classes Instructor-led?

We offer both instructor-led online and eLearning classes. All of our public instructor-led classes are taught by a live remote instructor. Our eLearning classes are self paced and are available for 6 months after you are enrolled. You will be taught by a real, live instructor, remotely. 

Our public instructor-led classes are real interactive classes and not just a pre-recorded video. Students that enroll for our courses can take them from their home or office. Our classes include an audio and visual connection (via Zoom) so students can talk with the instructor during class as well as see their screen. The instructor can also view the student’s screen if they need assistance. During most classes, students will be given exercises to further help the student’s understanding of the coursework. Most of our courses also include a book that is shipped to the students prior to class.

Immerse yourself in quality learning with online software trainings provided by Certstaffix Training.

Our state-of-the-art live online training provides you with any software needed, directly through a web browser during your class. We also ship any necessary courseware straight to you before the course begins. Experience the benefits of an instructor led course with features like:

• Online software training with live instructors via Zoom, providing a real-time learning experience.
• The luxury of hands-on learning with the software or skill you are studying.
• Rich interaction with peers also engaged in the course.
• All necessary software for the course provided in an online lab during class (may require free trial).
• Easy Q&A sessions. We maintain small class sizes for ample student question opportunities.

We offer a range of both instructor led and eLearning classes. All our public instructor led training courses are handled by a live remote instructor, ensuring you get a real, interactive learning experience. For those who prefer self-paced learning, our eLearning classes are available for 6 months after enrollment.

Our live online courses aren't just pre-recorded videos. They are real, interactive classes, where you can connect with the instructor via an audio-visual link through Zoom. This allows for direct communication during the class, as well as the ability to share screens if needed. Students receive exercises during most classes for a more hands-on learning approach. Additionally, a book is included with most courses, shipped to students before class commences. Make the smart choice and enroll in our instructor led courses for a superior learning experience.

Will I get certified upon completion of my class?

You will receive a certificate of completion at the end of your course but it is not an official certification for the software. Our courses are designed to teach the programs and prepare the students to take the appropriate certifications exams. However, we do not provide certification or deliver the certification exams. Students are responsible for arranging and paying for the certification exams on their own from a third party.

Do you accept the G.I. Bill?

We thank you for your service, but we are not able to accept the GI Bill at this time. Since we are a training company and not specifically a school, Certstaffix® Training is not an authorized institution under the G.I. Bill.

Why are your instructor-led courses only 1-5 days long? That seems too short compared to a college course.

We are confident that we can teach our courses in the amount of class time we provide. Our experienced instructors determine how long they need to teach the entire course outline. The main difference between our classes and those offered by a college/university is that all of our class days are 7 hours long, whereas a typical class day at a college is only one hour and meets maybe twice a week. So, a 5 day class that we offer is actually 35 hours long. That 35 hours is normally stretched over the length of a semester when taken at a college/university.

How much do your classes cost?

The prices for our classes vary depending on the type of course, the length of the class and whether the class is a public class or a private onsite class. All of our prices can be viewed in our Course Catalog.

What are the times for Public Instructor-led classes? Are there breaks?

All of our public live online classes (instructor-led) are held from 10 am to 5 pm Eastern Time (half day classes 10 am to 2 pm Eastern Time). This works out to:

10:00 am - 5:00 pm Eastern Time Zone
9:00 am - 4:00 pm Central Time Zone
8:00 am - 3:00 pm Mountain Time Zone
7:00 am - 2:00 pm Pacific Time Zone

Our courses are 1 to 5 days long, all public classes are scheduled between Monday and Friday. We do not currently offer weekend public classes.

Our public live online classes include a lunch break and two short breaks in between. The exact times of each will be coordinated by your instructor each day of your class.

Our private onsite classes are scheduled to your custom needs regarding start, end and break times.

Can you provide one on one private training?

We can provide private onsite one on one training but we would still need to charge the minimum onsite price for each course which may be cost prohibitive for individuals.

What type of payment do you accept?

We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express. We accept personal checks and company checks. We also accept direct deposits via bank transfer (EFT/ACH).

Which course should I take?

The best way for you decide which course is right for you is to look at the course description and outline provided on each individual course page on our website. If you still have questions about which course is appropriate for what you want to learn we can answer your questions and point you in the right direction. We have a live chat feature on our website. You can also call our main line to ask a question (888-330-6890) or you can click the “Ask a Question” button located below the course title on each course page.

Do I need to have the software installed on my computer in order to take a public class?

No. For public instructor-led classes we provide access to any needed software and lab environments during your class. All you need is a high speed internet connection and computer with microphone and speakers for voice over IP audio. For eLearning classes, we provide a software environment for desktop software courses only.

Do you offer job placement after I’ve completed my training?

We do not offer any type of job placement or career services. Our focus is strictly on technical and business training. Though we do offer training to those who are taking our courses in order to obtain skills needed to find a new job, most of our customers are people who come to us through their employer to learn software and other business skills for their current position.

Can I attend your public classes from home/office with a Mac computer?

Yes, however your lab environment will be PC based. We do not offer Mac version classes for any software.

Do you offering consulting?

No, we only offering live instructor-led training services, either in our public classes or private onsite classes.

Do you place your students/work with recruiters?

No, we primarily train the employees of organizations that send their employees to us. Therefore students already have a job and it is not appropriate to refer them to a recruiter or hiring company.
