Astuce provides independent consultancy and training services in the use of Apple computers and the Mac OS X operating system.  Our goal is to go beyond the normal experience of training by ensuring that we educate as well as inform.

 

We cater to anyone who is interested in learning about Apple computers and their software, from complete beginners to experienced system administrators and IT support staff.

 

One of our specialities is in providing training for IT staff and end-users in Higher Education and science and we are able to offer courses covering the more technical aspects of OS X, such as its Unix layer. Topics which tend to be of particular interest in Higher Education.  However, we are equally able to offer introductory courses to the system and its applications suitable for all levels of technical expertise.

 

We have developed our own set of modular training material based on an in-depth knowledge of OS X and many years experience gained teaching people to use computer systems more effectively.   We believe that the level of technical content in our material is better suited to our  customers than that found in courses designed for the business-oriented market.  Our course modules can be combined and customised according to customers’ interests and requirements.

 

We also believe in offering courses that are affordable for people in Higher Education.  Our ethos is to maximise the usefulness of our training courses for our clients rather than to maximise profits.
