The Three Ingredients Of A Great Training Course

We believe that there are three components that every great training course must contain.

1) Happy, engaged learners are fast learners.

Training must be fun to be engaging and impactful.

2) Small classes are critical.

Its hard to stay focused if you can’t ask questions and get to the bottom of things.

3) Practical, hands-on learning is the best.

Training must be hands-on for you to test what you’ve just learned and develop real skills.

Content was informative and refreshing, nice to do this within a company and get perspective of my fellow colleagues that I do not see regularly.

Richard Pearson, Dennis Eagle Limited

Really useful materials, useful examples and lots of space to let the participants speak/reflect/ask questions. The size of the group was also good!

Charlotte Scholten, What Works For Children Social Care

Jo the trainer was excellent, really engaging and made me feel at ease which is not always the case at training sessions! It really helped and made a massive difference- thanks Jo! The information covered was very useful and it was easy to see how I could implement that in my day to day work. I felt like I left the course with a clear idea of positive steps I can take.

Amy Collins, London Metropolitan University

The trainer had good insight into the kinds of issues we face as managers, and provided real-world, practical suggestions rather than only theory. I also found that the supplementary material (the workbook) is full of lots of information and will provide useful additional reading after the course, in addition to the content covered in the day.

Jake Patterson, Boxfusion Consulting Ltd

Everyone on the course today all chipped in and discussions were very beneficial. Ideas were shared and I've come away feeling I've learned something and benefited from the course.

Willie McDonald, Mearns & Company

Very relaxed and enjoyable environment. This course was very useful to hear others opinions and scenarios and also how to deal with certain situations especially being new to the managerial job role. This has given me confidence to go back to the office to try out certain ways of dealing with difficult situation in a professional manor

Francesca Leyde, Rowntree Taylor LLP

Very small class which made me feel comfortable and able to understand things more. It was very relaxed which was good and felt i could take in information. It was also great that we could explain different scenarios and experience that we have gone through and get other peoples ideas.

Callum Watson, Brooklands Museum Trust Ltd

Gaining perspective on tools/techniques that I previously had no knowledge of or hadn't applied in certain situations, particularly around language and motivation.

Joe Green, PeopleCheck Ltd

I felt like the course/lessons were almost tailored to my role and very applicable to my situation. This is because the trainer spent a lot of time asking us about our work and asking probing questions, which I think helped me feel comfortable in saying and identifying challenges I had at work. I also learnt a lot from the others on the course, and feel like it was very well facilitated and drew on the experience and knowledge of all participants.

Shahenda Suliman, British Medical Association

Our instructor Jo was extremely helpful, let us talk and share our stories. The time flew by, I felt it all just flowed naturally and felt that ideas and experiences were able to be shared in confidence.
