Internal Events

This approach is favoured by many of our clients as it provides a high quality and value-for-money staff development route with a particular focus on your needs.  Existing workshops can be tailored to your specific requirements and delivered on-site or at a nearby venue.

Depending on numbers and location the cost per delegate can be significantly reduced.

Costs include delegate handout packs, attendance registers, delegate feedback - capture, analysis and summary of, issue of CPD certificates, reasonable consultant/facilitator travel, and where required consultant/facilitator overnight accommodation.

Delegate Numbers

The maximum, recomended, number of delegates varies according to topic with 18 being the norm. In some situations we may be able to accomodate upto 24 delegates. Please bear in mind that there is trade a off between cost and quality. The majority of our workshops are designed as interactive learning and development sessions. Lower delegate numbers,10-14, enable the sessions to be more interactive and consequently delegates gain more from them.

Logistics

We typically ask you to provide a venue, refreshments, data projector, connections to our laptop, screen and flip charts. We will confirm equipment requirements against individual enquiries. We can supply equipment where necessary but this may incur additional costs.

The workshops usually begin with refreshments at 9.00 for a 9.30 start and breaks at 11.00, 12.30 and 3.00. Close is round about 16.30. The preferred room layout is Cabaret, with no participants having their backs to the screen, or U shape where numbers are below 12. Please note, classroom and lecture styles do not work well.

The consultant/facilitator usually aims to arrive on site for set up at about 8.30

We can adjust these times to meet your needs as required.

Invoicing

Once we have agreed delivery in principle a consultant/facilitator would usually contact you direct to establish any local emphasis required. In a very few isolated situations there is a need to revisit content with resultant cost increases. We would discuss this and agree the route forward prior to finally agreeing delivery or otherwise. Once content, approach and dates have been agreed we would ask you to supply a purchase order. Invoicing takes place on the day after the workshop and is based on the higher of delegate numbers advised 10 days prior to the workshop or attend on the day. Terms are a strict 30 days.
