Face to Face Training – (Position as at Feb 18th 2021)

I will review my position on Face to Face Training dependent upon circumstances – at the moment we are in lockdown. 

Face to face courses may technically be possible when lockdown lessens, if we can find rooms large enough for groups to sit socially distanced, and adjust some of the exercises – however it is not the optimal learner experience as a lot of the benefit from face to face courses comes from discussions in small groups at close quarters. There are also liability and risk assessment issues to consider – and the chance that local lockdowns may mean courses can’t go ahead, or individuals cannot attend. It is mainly for this last reason, and the risk of losing room booking fees, that I will not be scheduling any open face to face courses for some time. 

As the rollout of the vaccine continues apace (I had my first jab today) I’m hopeful that we will be able to resume more normal practices before long, but I want to make sure I and my delegates are safe, and also those we live with who may still be vulnerable. I recommend the online course to you without hesitation if your staff are able to work in this way – we have had some excellent results and feedback over the last six months and more. 

*Courses need a minimum number of attendees for exercises to work – if we do not get sufficient bookings I will let you know and offer a refund or hold your place for a future date.
