Training Methodology
We will be pleased to discuss your exact training requirements. Some examples of our range of training products are:
We believe that to ensure quality delivery of training events, the client should undertake a 'training needs analysis' to ascertain the level of skills, knowledge and experience of the delegates prior to the training taking place. This enables the trainer to develop the right level materials and delivery to maximise the training opportunity. We would be happy to assist with this process.
We only use professionally qualified trainers to deliver all training assignments. Most trainers have the CIPD recognised 'Certificate in Training Practice'.
We can provide a complete training and support service, through to individually tailored 'one-off' events.
The Complete Service
We would always encourage each client to adopt a systematic learning approach, which is a recognised approach, which takes account of the individual, organisation and functional needs, which produce a rounded delivery process. It also ensures that all three elements receive the maximum benefit from the training programme.
- Training Needs Analysis
- Design of Programme
- Delivery of the Programme

The Learning Cycle
Whilst carrying out the training needs analysis stage, we will recognise the work of David Kolb, who was the first to offer what he called a learning style inventory, which was adapted by Honey and Mumford into the working model below, which recognises that there are four main learning styles which need to be addressed in any training and development programme to ensure that all participants get something out of it.
Kolb's Learning Cycle
Delivery of Training
We will always design our training programme to take account of individual learning styles and will always have a combination of approaches to ensure that the four recognised learning styles are catered for.
