Prior to a delegate's course start date, they will be enrolled on our e-learning platform (in partnership with BCF Group) for the course they are booked on to. They will also be given contact information for their trainer, and details of how to access the online workshops. Delegates will not require any special IT equipment.

We hope you agree that this blended learning experience represents the safest way to continue supporting our clients and delegates during the Coronavirus disruption. In-House Courses As well as being one of the most popular open courses, we can also arrange this course as an in-house programme for companies and organisations who wish to develop a number of their managers at the same time, and would find an in-house course at their own premises much more suitable.
