Training for individuals and teams
Any of our courses can be delivered for either individuals or teams
Individual and small-team courses are delivered at our West London training centre on a date to suit you.
They are for both those at mid-career, and new entrants to multimedia content creation and distribution.
If you need a larger team trained, no problem. That can be done either at your premises, or another convenient venue.
If you are freelance, self-employed, or employed in a very small team, I can offer you either one-to-one, personal tuition, or tuition in a group of no more than three delegates – which means you get all the personal guidance you need.
Prices are set realistically, at £195 per delegate per day (most courses are completed in a day).
I also offer a range of the most popular courses as e-learning, delivered through a mix of on-line audio, video and text modules, phone and email consultation.
