Format & Inclusions

Our training programs are engaging and reflective of current best practice in the subject matter delivered. All of our sessions are practical with lots of individual and group activities, skills practice, role plays and a personal action plan.

We have activities and small group work throughout the session so participants are actively engaged which makes the learning transfer easier. Participants also receive individual attention from our expert facilitator who will gauge the pre-knowledge of the group, so they are able to target the content to their needs.

In addition to the workshop, participants undertake a pre-course survey (to determine individual needs), receive a Certificate of Attendance, free access to our online toolkit and follow-up email boosters.
