While the cooling economic climate is forcing many organisations to think about retracting, IT training specialist New Horizons Ireland has expanded, opening a new centre in Galway. Located in Ballybrit Business Park, the centre will employ four full-time trainers along with sales and administration staff.

New Horizons, a Microsoft gold certified partner for learning solutions (CPLS), has in the past year pumped EUR*250,000 into expansion, with the new Galway centre and one in Belfast .

New Horizons Ireland GM Peter Ingle is excited about the challenge. He said he had long wanted to provide the full range of official IT courses to existing and new clients in the western region on a guaranteed no cancellation basis. “We are not reliant on having a minimum number of participants, and this is a huge advantage for people wanting to take less common courses.”

Ingle said New Horizons is bringing mentored learning to Galway, offering IT customers in the west the same flexibility as in Dublin for the last five years. “Courses offered include Cisco, SharePoint, Exchange 2007, Windows Server 2003 and 2008, Windows Vista, A+ and many of the courses required for the new generation of Microsoft Certifications such as MCTS and MCITP.”

Among those benefitting from New Horizons training in Dublin have been SME’s, Government departments and large organisations. Worldwide, New Horizons has delivered over 25,000,000 training days over the last 25 years.
