Keyboard Speed Development (Self-Paced).

Keyboard speed improvement is one of our most popular typing subjects and is enjoyed by everyone from IT professionals, through secretaries to Executive PA's.

The jobs market loves people who can type accurately at 70 wpm and this course is designed to get you there.

We move through 4 distinct stages which aim to increase speed, dexterity, accuracy and productivity with the ultimate aim of getting you up to 70 wpm.

Each stage is treated as a separate unit and you begin at the level that reflects your current ability.

Graded copying exercises emphasise different points of technique for flexibility and dexterity while use of tapes with timed dictation will increase your speed and productivity.

You'll enjoy working from our comfortable training centres with an audio track and personalised workbook.

Most students like the fact that they can come in when it suits them rather than having to join a class with a rigid timetable. This is particularly important for busy people who can't always make it to classes. At Pitman Training, we work around your schedule rather than you having to work around ours.

Keyboard Speed Development provides the core skills for RSA word processing examinations and the opportunity to earn a widely recognised Pitman Training Certificate.

On average, the total study time required to complete the four stages of this programme totals 80 hours.

How Does It Work?

This is one of the most frequently asked questions about our Keyboard Speed Development course and we're always happy to answer it!

Before you enrol, we'll double check your current typing speed and look out for any bad habits you've developed. Next, we'll recommend which level you should begin at and provide you with all the exercises you need to remove your bad habits.

When you're ready to begin, we'll provide you with a workbook of increasingly challenging exercises and you'll enjoy listening to audio dictation as you work through them. Our friendly trainers will keep an eye on your posture and the position of your hands to make sure you're doing everything correctly so you can develop your speed in the shortest possible time.

It's a great programme and you are very welcome to come and sample it - free!
