How it is delivered

We come to you. Training runs at your own premises, which keeps your people on site and means the practical work happens in the environment they actually work in. If your site is not suitable we can arrange a venue instead, which is usually discussed when you book.

We are based in Glasgow and cover Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Dundee, Aberdeen, Carlisle, Newcastle, Argyll, Highlands and Islands and Cumbria, and we will travel further for the right booking. See areas we cover.
