Our interactive virtual training delivery model ensures we deliver the exact learning outcomes for your organisation as our face-to-face training, in a learner friendly and accessible way. We split our learning into shorter sessions to maintain delegate engagement and cater for different learning styles. The individual course pages will detail how many sessions there are for each specific course.
Delivered via Microsoft Teams with a combination of information delivery, group discussions and short activities to facilitate interactivity. A guide to accessing your training on Teams and support are available once your course is booked.
Your sessions are tailored by topic and may include a combination of:
- training delivery by our experienced and knowledgeable training consultants
- interactive activities and/or discussions
- completion of one of our online modules
- presentation by an autistic speaker.
Virtual training delivery is available for a variety of training topics and we are happy to explore bespoke options to suit your organisation’s needs.
