Who We Are

Commonwealth Computer Training opened in 2001 as a division of Commonwealth Personnel Consultants, inc.  Owned and operated by Patricia W. Haynes, Commonwealth Personnel Consultants, Inc. has been serving the greater Richmond employment market since 1985.

We are locally owned and and because of local involvement, we know where the jobs are and what's needed.  We are already familiar with Richmond's employers, so we know what they want.  They want updated computer skills and soft skills.

We started Commonwealth Computer Training to meet a need for computer training that matches the marketplace.  After all, Richmond is where we live - we care about this area and want to see its workforce well prepared.

Training Affects Your Bottom Line

As a business owner or manager, you know the importance of having trained professionals on your team to meet your customers' expectations.  And you are all too aware of what happens when skills get rusty or new technology is introduced or upgraded.  Let Commonwealth Computer Training customize classes for you and your employees.

For a company to maintain a competitive edge, they must constantly adapt to new technology and changing work formats.  This means employees need constant training just to keep up.

The average office employee wastes 10-15 minutes per hour due to lack of computer skills.  This can add up over time.  In a 40-hour work week, 10 minutes per hour totals over 6 hours per week.  Over a year's time, that's well over 300 hours, wasted.

A simple one-day training class can teach not only new skills, but time-saving tips and tricks to improve staff efficiency and productivity.

At Commonwealth Computer Training, our instructors understand that it is important for employees to get through their work quickly.  We all face deadlines, and not knowing computer shortcuts can waste time!  We will show you all of the tricks to make your staff faster and help eliminate stress!  We also offer one-on-one training at our office or yours.  Employees can learn just the skills they need, on their own computer, on their real office documents.

“Our CPA Firm used Commonwealth Computer Training to educate our employees on the New Features of Word and Excel 2007. From developing the course, to scheduling to the actual training, Commonwealth Computer Training was very accommodating, professional and easy to work with. Their on-site training facility is very comfortable and the computer equipment is up to date and easy to use. The instructor was very thorough and made 6-hours of training seem to fly by. I would definitely recommend Commonwealth Computer Training to any size group."
