  • Virtual ‘break-out’ rooms: participants are divided into virtual rooms to facilitate small group discussion.
  • Polling: multiple-choice questions, answered anonymously, allow the trainer to assess knowledge and understanding across the group.
  • Case studies: true to life case studies and scenarios are used to highlight the practical application of theoretical knowledge.
  • Messaging: participants can submit questions and comments, either to the whole group or privately to the trainer.

Additional Benefits:

  • Recording: public course participants have the option to access a recording of the course for one month after the course. In-House clients also have the option to record their training for an additional fee.

  • On-going Q&A: public course participants can access an ongoing Q&A facility allowing them to ask questions relating to the course.

 

In-Person Delivery

Our in-person training is delivered face to face at your offices, and includes:

  • ‘In-the-moment’ questions & discussions: questions through conversations allow the trainer to assess knowledge and understanding across the group.
