For more than five years Corporate Express has been actively engaging Lumify (formerly DDLS) to provide training services. Members of the Support Services team including myself have attended training courses over this period. The courses are high quality, and have always met our needs. The instructors have excellent subject matter knowledge and all the staff at Lumify (formerly DDLS) are friendly and ensure the entire experience from booking to s

The Leadership for IT Professionals course is one of the best courses I have attended. The material covered was very relevant to both work and life experiences. I can say that the skills learnt in the course have been applied to both my work environment as well as personal life. The trainer was one of the best educators I have had. He made the material interesting and had an excellent method of communicating effectively, even with the biggest sce

I recently attended the DDLS course Presentation Skills: Creating Confidence, Impact and Results. The course was excellent! The content was well thought out and made good use of the course duration. Our presenter was the highlight of the course, showing us insights and techniques he himself uses to great effect.

Our CEO said it was the best Professional Development event that she’s ever seen produced as both Cliff and I implemented what we learnt and have already completed one project on time and on budget with great results!

The content was invaluable in addressing our objectives and it was delivered by a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable presenter in Guy. His presentation style certainly kept everybody’s attention and interest throughout the training. We found the training extremely beneficial in reinforcing and providing some handy ti

Once again thanks for two very well run courses, Time Management and PRINCE2 Foundation. The time management course in particular has been invaluable in managing not only my work life, and equally importantly, the rest of my day to day activities. PRINCE2® Foundation has not only provided a framework in which to structure my projects, which makes my life simpler, but in these tougher economic times, provided a well regarded certification. Both in

I found the Leadership for IT Professionals course very satisfying and would recommend it to others looking to learn or reinforce leadership skills. It was both informative and inspirational. The instructor drew upon a broad range of personal experiences and interesting anecdotes to help deliver the knowledge. In addition, the student to instructor ratio was ideal allowing everyone to ask questions relative to their fields, augmenting the curricu

Lumify (formerly DDLS)’ Presentation Skills was an insightful course that covered presentation delivery in an informative and interactive environment. I have noticed immediate improvements from topics such as engaging the audience, use of visual aids and confident delivery methods. Those with limited presentation experience along with regulars wishing to hone their skills will benefit from the subjects covered.

After attending you course, I have come back to work with a different attitude to my work and customers. After talking about the different personalities and the way to deal with these, it has made communicate better for others to understand.I thoroughly enjoyed the training over the last two days and have taken a lot away, I will put it all into practice. Believe it or not, I actually put into practice at home last night with my sister. 😉 On a m
