    "Thank you Jackie so much again for putting together such an insightful presentation. As I mentioned, the feedback so far has been really positive and a few people I have spoken to in the office today have already made some tweaks to their default settings. Your presentation skills were some of the best I’ve seen, and I was impressed with how you were able to navigate between screens despite the technical challenges. Thank you again!"

    -Henry Drummond, The Law Society of NSW - 28/07/2023

    "A HUGE thank you for the OneNote training that I completed. Having completed courses previously, I was expecting similar basic content and a struggle to say engaged. I was pleasantly surprised by Marys knowledge and ability to engage all attendees from beginners through to more advanced users, covering a range of skills, including more advanced use scenarios. I learnt a lot and have already applied many of the skills that I learnt."

    -Kathleen Donohue - 21/07/2023

    "Brendan was awesome, I liked the way he made the training engaging and interactive although it was virtual. One of the very few virtual trainings I have enjoyed"

    -Nanda Almeida, Department of Education

    "The Australian Chamber Orchestra has engaged Priority for 15 years to conduct Outlook training, which is considered an important component of our induction process to assist with productivity. It’s always a pleasure to liaise with Priority Management. As a participant, I found the online workshop to be informative, educational, fun, and engaging."

    -Claire Diment, Australian Chamber Orchestra - 12/04/2023

    "Mary was very knowledgeable on the material and able to answer any queries quickly and effectively, there are many strategies that I took from the training that will allow me to build on previous knowledge and be more effective working within Outlook."

    -Thomas Davies, The University of Sydney - 28/06/2023

    "The workshop was great and very helpful. Simply explained, useful information and good tools! I will use the skills i have further developed and use the tools provided to my benefit!"

    -Will Schoenmaker, Department of Health-NSW

    "Thanks for putting on such amazing training sessions for our employees over the past 2 weeks, we have had incredible feedback about how valuable they found the Outlook training and how great a facilitator Dani is. One employee reached out saying it was the best training she has ever done, which is a testament to how good the content and facilitators are!"

    -Sara Learmonth, L\'Oréal - 11/05/23

    "Outlook to me was just a repository for emails, but now it is transformed into a powerful automated planning tool. Thank you Mary! I also like how you consider typography when setting up the layout and solution."

    -Jianyang Sun, The University of Sydney - 28/06/2023

    "I was hesitant on how much I could learn on an 8 hour outlook course but the course exceeded my expectations and I was surprised by how much I took away from the course."

    -Laura Watman, Defence NSW

    "But also the programs were fabulous because they are really practical. It’s not just here’s how you use it. It’s really about how you embed it into your everyday work life which is what I like about it."

    -Danielle, Elserver

    "As a school Principal, I greatly value practical training that delivers immediate and measurable improvements in productivity. The "Working Sm@rt with Microsoft Outlook" workshop facilitated by Priority Management exceeded all expectations."

    -Roslynd, Department of Education

    "The course and facilitator were great and therefore was served well. I learnt so many new things. Our facilitator was a great teacher. Very knowledgeable, spoke at a good pace."

    -Emma Furneaux, ICAC
