Courses available from this speaker

“The course (Good Spreadsheet Practice) was extremely useful...The pace was good and Simon Hurst was very clear explaining all the functions available within Excel and the purpose of them.  ”
Angela Jenner

“This was the best SESCA course (The Accountant on the Farm: A Comprehensive Review) I have ever been on; why? Not just because the presenters know their stuff, but because they paint a scenario and then talk about the finance/tax aspects.”
Alex Spofforth

“I found the course (A Practical Tax Brush Up for Returners with Rebecca Benneyworth) really useful and informative, and it covered all the areas I was hoping it would. I found the delivery was perfect and everything was explained in a way that made it easy to understand/apply.”
