 Yes — it is absolutely OK and actually recommended to tell companies about the trainings you’ve completed πŸ‘

But how you present it matters.


When It’s Good to Mention Trainings

You should mention trainings if:

  • They are relevant to the job

  • They added practical skills

  • They show continuous learning

  • You can apply or explain what you learned

Companies like candidates who invest in self-improvement.


How to Mention Trainings Properly

1. On Your Resume

Create a “Certifications / Trainings” section.

Example:

Trainings & Certifications • Data Analytics Training – XYZ Institute (2024) • Python for Automation – Online Program • Networking Fundamentals – CCNA Basics

πŸ‘‰ Keep it short and relevant.


2. In Interviews

Don’t just list — connect it to value.

❌ “I completed a training in Excel.”
✅ “During my Excel training, I worked on dashboards and automated reports, which improved data analysis efficiency.”


3. On LinkedIn / Portfolio

Yes, definitely:

  • Add certificates

  • Share small projects or outcomes

  • Mention tools you used

This builds credibility.


What to Avoid 🚫

  • Don’t exaggerate skills you don’t have

  • Don’t list too many unrelated trainings

  • Don’t mention very basic or outdated courses unless asked

  • Don’t rely on training alone — projects matter more


What Companies Really Care About

Training + Application = Trust

They ask:

  • Can you use this skill?

  • Have you applied it?

  • Can you explain it simply?


Best Practice Formula

Training + Project + Result

Example:

“Completed Android Development training and built two apps, one with Firebase authentication.”


Final Answer

✅ Yes, tell companies about your trainings
✅ Be honest
✅ Show practical use
✅ Focus on relevance

If you want, you can share:

  • Your job role

  • List of trainings you completed

I’ll help you present them perfectly for resumes and interviews.
