'We benefited from being able to work with a student with knowledge of Microsoft Active Server Pages and database skills that we didn't
have in house. We thoroughly recommend the IT Wales placement scheme to other companies looking for a solution to their IT needs'
Jeremy Clulow, Webs Wonder Design

skill level they were at. The student was able to quickly adapt her teaching style and fitted the training in around the busy schedule of
staff, particularly senior partners. She also reformatted letters and researched ways of improving the sound quality for narration in
Powerpoint'.

Carmel Gahan, Managing Director
Company Name: Frogmore Consulting
Project Description:
Student worked with a graphic designer prior to a company 'makeover'. New corporate image, website and brochures were all required. Researched key words for website and all quality procedures and manuals were reviewed and updated.
