How is it done?

All our workshops are developed with high levels of input from delegates. We professionally coach our delegates rather than tell them what to do. By doing this we achieve maximum learning, high relevance to Chambers and embed change. Delegates will experience low levels of PowerPoint and high levels of interaction, leaving with all course notes and extending reading materials.
