New Skills Training

Very often a specific learning need is identified as important to achieve a change. Career paths and job roles are changing faster than ever but traditional training programmes are often inflexible or too generic. Through one-to-one-training, you can learn a new skill in a relaxed yet focused environment. By applying and practising it in your own real-life situation you move forward quickly and positively, tackling the specific problems and issues that have been holding you back.

Learning needs will often become evident from an appraisal or review or when starting a new job or role.  Alternatively you may be aware that you need to address a specific issue or problem that has been concerning you. Tailored and targeted new skills training is a practical and cost-effective way to develop new skills.

Skills that can be easily and quickly developed include:
  • assertiveness
  • dealing with challenging people effectively
  • managing the team
  • public speaking
  • managing your manager
  • increasing your power and influence at work
  • conflict resolution
  • conducting appraisals and reviews
  • interview skills
  • managing workload priorities
  • time management
  • career planning
