'A Practical Look at...' Training Courses

'A Practical Look at...'

These training courses have all been designed to be 80% practical when delivered. With every individual having a different way of learning we feel it is important to provide courses that are suitable for all learning styles. 


In these courses, attendees will 'learn by doing'. We've created various real life scenarios for individuals to consider which are specific to the topic area, such as gathering evidence and exhibits or conducting PACE interviews.  Our expert trainers will be on-site to offer guidance, support, and practical advice throughout the learning process.

We've had amazing feedback from these courses with some describing them as "the best course I've ever attended".


 Because of the highly interactive and practical nature of these courses, they are exclusively available for in-person delivery. 


Our 'A Practical Look At...' courses are fully customised to suit your needs. As part of this we take into account levels of experience when suggesting course lengths. Courses can be anything from half-day refresher courses to one-week courses.
