Computeach awarded Microsoft gold accreditation

Distance learning specialist Computeach has been awarded Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Learning Solutions (CPLS) - the highest level of accreditation provided by Microsoft to a training partner. The accreditation makes Computeach one of only 12 training companies in the UK to achieve this status.

"This certification has been awarded to just a handful of organisations and has been developed by Microsoft to differentiate the very best of its certified training providers," said Ram Dhaliwal, Training and Certification Manager at Microsoft.

"Time away from the workplace is a major issue for employers when it comes to training their staff. The Computeach offering provides all the advantages of group support and traditional instructor led training together with the flexibility of learning at home or place of work at a variety of levels and speeds. They proved their competency by delivering high levels of technical knowledge and skills to individuals and organisations."

Computeach was founded in 1964 by George Parkinson. His grandson, Karl Parkinson is the current chairman and the company is based in Dudley, West Midlands. Commenting on the award, Karl Parkinson said: "We are absolutely overjoyed to have been awarded this status. It recognises our skills, commitment and quality."
