Online Productivity Training Ltd (OP-Training) works with managers, analysts, administrators and directors of organisations in Europe, the Middle East and North and East Africa.
We focus on Microsoft applications, particularly Power BI and applications in the field of analytics.
OP-Training is an environmentally responsible organisation. To help to address the climate crisis we only deliver courses online because this minimises the need for travel and keeps carbon emissions to a minimum. For the type of technical courses that we teach, online delivery has little impact because participants do not need to work in groups.
Our registered office is in North Wales in the UK quite close to the beautiful mountains of Snowdonia.
OP-Training is run by Gideon Mitchell, who started his career as a management consultant working at Roland Berger Strategy Consultants in their London office. His early projects included:
More recently his consulting work has included creating forecasting models using VBA for a national UK newspaper and projects for various clients developing Power BI reports to inform decision making, based on live data.
Gideon’s first teaching job was in 1993 as a mathematics lecturer at Ithaca College London Center but, starting in 2008, he learned the art of writing and delivering short corporate courses at Learning Tree International, one of the most prestigious training organisations in the world and added skills as an online trainer on Learning Tree’s pioneering AnyWare platform. Gideon still works for Learning Tree on a part-time basis but most of his training work is now carried out through OP-Training.
When Gideon is not teaching courses himself, we employ other highly experienced trainers who are all Microsoft Certified and have extensive experience teaching online.
