BESPOKE SESSIONS: We can adapt and bring training to you:
We are aware that departments/organisations are all under time pressure and find it increasingly difficult to release staff for training. If you have a group of staff who cannot attend scheduled sessions, we can consider bespoke training to meet the specific needs of your department.
