Provider Success in Microsoft Office Specialist

In today’s competitive employment market, candidates are looking for a qualification that will ensure they stand out from the rest. The Microsoft Office Specialist programme is the only globally recognised Microsoft certification designed to measure and validate student’s skills with Microsoft Office applications.

Recently, New Zealand providers offering this qualification participated in the annual academic competition held by Computer Press. The New Zealand School of Travel & Tourism (NZSTT) has been named the National Testing Centre prize winner for providing the best student results.

As a provider NZSTT has invested heavily to incorporate extras into their qualifications, Microsoft Office Specialist training is one of these valuable extras.
