Most transformed student…

When I registered with Netcom I had no idea how much I will learn my focus was learning about this scary AI which was coming to take our jobs. Today I stand confidently knowing how to start my own business, running using digital channels which was also a scary territory for me. Today with the knowledge it isn't so anymore. I can even do my own website and check how and apply strategies on how to remain competitive. As a nurse would they not put AI on the outline I wouldn't have picked it. They also gave us tools for careers. The tutors were very patient and knowledgeable in their subject matter.All lessons were interconnected and at the end it all came together. Thank you Netcom

Netcom has changed the way I approach everything. I have a fresh perspective and clearer current understanding of what I have been doing for the last twenty years, in social media content creation and marketing. I wonder how I managed without the knowledge and focus that I have now. I feel like given the opportunity I could conquer the world with my new skills which include business plan creation and website design. I have astounded myself with what I have developed under the carefully guided instruction of Gary our lecturer. He has been amazing and patient. Time for everyone. Soothed all the panicked moments where I felt overwhelmed. Thank you Netcom for allowing me to take part in this amazing course. I will share with everyone who asks, and boast about your institution. Been a fantastic experience.

My Netcome course with Gary has been absolutely fantastic. He’s taught me so much about how to use AI to my advantage for my new company, which has completely changed my mindset after initially being nervous to use it. Beyond that, I’ve learned valuable skills in social media marketing and web design that have already started to make a difference in my work. Gary was incredibly engaging throughout the course, making every lesson both enjoyable and insightful.

Social media and web design course

This course just opened my eyes to so many possibilities and avenues to work on social media, that I always thought was really difficult and needs specialised knowledge and experience. Gary made everything so easy to understand and follow, I feel I am ready to implement this learning in real life and excel. For me the best part was how AI can be integrated in your everyday work, simplifying and taking things to the next level with such ease.
I would definitely recommend this.

From Zero to Hero

From Zero to Hero - A Truly Transformative Experience with Netcom

The Social Media Marketing programme at Netcom has far exceeded my expectations. Coming from absolutely no background in marketing or social media, I can honestly say I’ve gone from zero to hero thanks to the incredible structure and delivery of this course.

The programme is exceptionally well designed, with a clear, logical progression that makes even complex topics easy to grasp. What stood out most to me was the multimodal teaching style combining visual, auditory, and hands-on learning, which made the content engaging and accessible for all types of learners. As someone who values neurodivergent-friendly learning environments, I found the teaching methods refreshingly inclusive, flexible, and supportive of different processing and learning styles.

A special mention must go to Gary, whose teaching style truly makes this course shine. His patience, clarity, and genuine passion for the subject are evident in every lesson. He takes time to ensure everyone understands the material and creates an atmosphere where questions are always welcome. Gary’s ability to explain concepts in a practical, relatable way made learning marketing not only approachable but genuinely enjoyable.

I can’t recommend this course highly enough to anyone considering a career in marketing or wanting to upskill in today’s digital world. Netcom has built a programme that’s both empowering and transformative, and I’m deeply grateful for the journey it’s taken me on.

I had the privilege of following a course at Netcom with Gary. The course gave us not only all the necessary theory but also a wealth of practical exercises and assignments to integrate.
I especially enjoyed the quizzes on Socrative, the high interactivity of the course, and the exercises (labs).
Gary has been incredibly patient and an inspiration for the group, fostering a safe, friendly and engaged atmosphere. Thank you!

practical focus

practical focus — we learned how to use real AI tools that can be immediately applied in everyday work. Everything was clear, structured, and without any spare or overwhelming theory. The instructor explained each topic in an accessible way and was always ready to give extra support when needed.

Now I have a clear and systematic understanding of how to create a business plan, build a marketing strategy, and even develop a simple website using effective AI tools. I also know which metrics to track and how to manage social media more strategically.

Most importantly, I’ve gained a holistic vision of how to grow a business through digital presence. These insights might not be enough for a large corporation, but for small businesses, they are perfect — because small business owners don’t have time for endless theory. They need clear, efficient, and working tools — and that’s exactly what this course provided.

Great course and tutor

Thanks to Gary, I had a great time learning and growing my confidence using AI / training up on SEO optimization / website creation.

Course was well paced and offered alot of support in and out of class if needed, with alot of support on what services to use and recommendations on what to do to start your own business if thats what you want.

Gary was very engaging and kept checking on you and would have activities to make sure you are paying attention as goes on.

The course is wonderful if you can commit the time as it is a long course and it can feel a bit over whelming if you have to balance a job at the same time, but Gary adn the rest of the team are there to help and support too.

I particularly like Gary's teachings as they're very unique and a whole new way to keep me digesting new information.
The overall course was wonderfully laid out and kept me accountable and eager to learn more.#
Thank you for this opportunity to dive into the world of social media and web design.

At first, Social Media and Web Design.

At first, I was really scared to join the Social media and Web design course online as I had never done something like this before, but I really enjoyed it, especially with my Tutor being Gary Murrain-Meade. Honestly, an amazing tutor and very informative. I have learnt so much during this course.

Had an absolute blast attending this course. Anyone at all can try to teach IT or even learn IT just from watching youtube videos but few really capture the right way to teach. Every lesson I attended it was obvious to see the level of quality that Netcom as well as my tutor has made sure to reach for our lessons. I have been very satisfied and content with how Netcom has offered their IT training.

Also, a big shout out to my tutor, Antwan Atkins. No matter the scale of knowledge in terms of IT there were within the learners, patience and support was always available and everyone was always given the opportunity to share their thoughts. I can personally say that I love the way that the classes are set out as it ensures that no one is left behind. Even in the event of this happening, further support is extended towards the learners.

There hasn't been even one moment during my time in this course where I felt like I had no one to turn to or that any questions were unanswered or shrugged off.

I'm very thankful and glad for the learning opportunity provided (free) by Netcom and for all the continued support that has been provided for me. Cheers again Antwan, couldn't have done it without ya.

Everything about this course and the topics were very interesting to get into and the units were set up in a great order. I've learnt a lot more than I expected to when I started this, but it has been made easier and simpler to remember, mainly through the help of Antwan. Great course, better tutor.

Gratitude expression

First I want to express my gratitude for the exceptional teaching (Antwan Atkins) From the very beginning, I felt welcomed and supported, despite having no prior experience in IT. The engaging teaching style made complex concepts manageable and relevant. The hands-on approach allowed me to develop practical skills that I can confidently apply in real-world situations. I appreciate the encouragement and motivation you provide, which has truly inspired me to grow in this field. Thank you for being such a dedicated and approachable teacher

I really enjoyed the IT Essentials course at NetCom. It was a great mix of theory and practice — from learning about hardware and software to actually building and troubleshooting PCs. The hands-on labs were my favorite part, and the instructors Antwan Atkins made everything easy to understand. This course gave me more confidence in IT and motivated me to keep learning.

I recently completed the IT Support Course

I recently completed the IT Support course. It was a fantastic experience, and I gained many new valuable skills that have helped me land my first job in IT. My tutor and the rest of the staff at Netcom Training were very helpful and always supportive during my course.

Lauren, my career coach, and Tony my tutor, were absolutely amazing. I wouldn't have been able to land the job I have now without them. They were always helpful and showed interest in my progress.
