What our clients say…
Working with Digital Skills People is incredibly easy. They are really flexible, really responsive, have good ideas and deliver a high standard of work.
Ady has his finger on the pulse of digital learning. He regularly shares useful information on digital learning to me and the team. Having that knowledge and a great network as a sounding board is a real asset too. There’s not been a question when he hasn’t been able to point me in the right direction.
The speed and understanding shown by Digital Skills People throughout our project was exceptional. Their ability to take a concept and deliver it above and beyond our expectations was incredible.
Ady works with speed and accuracy and is always willing to suggest improvements as well as work to detailed client briefs. A good communicator and a nice guy to boot (meaning a good guy to work with!)
Ady is one of the most talented Digital L&D pros out there. He’s innovative, creative and technically astute in most if not all digital media channels and systems. One of Ady’s many strengths is his ability to tell stories through video and other digital means, he understands his audience and can tailor his approach extremely effectively.
Ady is responsive, really friendly and good humoured. He’s happy to take feedback and is always looking for ways to improve what he does. Not that there are many, and not that I’ve been able to give him much steer in that, because he’s brilliant. He does what he says, and often he under-promises and over delivers. And that’s a good way to be.
Ady took the time to understand what I wanted my website to do for my business and was very patient with me. He designed my website and gave me tutorials of how to update it myself. I now have a website that I am proud of and can update with little effort. Totally recommend Ady and his team
