Course expectations
Due to the bespoke nature of our services, we would need to get a sense of your team’s training requirements before we can provide you with an accurate quote. Please contact us and we can discuss the options available to you along with the associated costs.
We travel all over the UK and Europe as well as further afield for our clients. We can deliver our training programmes either at your offices or at a conference venue that suits your needs. We are happy to arrange a venue if you would like us to do so. As well as facilitating our courses in person, we can also do so remotely, meaning no costly travel expenses.
There is no minimum group size for our training services, as we charge on a day basis, rather than for a number of participants. We even offer one-to-one coaching!
Given the bespoke nature of our training services, this greatly depends on our early conversations as to what your learning objectives are and the content that is required to achieve these. Following a brief conversation, we will be able to give you our suggested course timings that are appropriate to meet your specific needs. Typically our training courses are run over one to two days. If preferred, we can break these down into bite-sized chunks which can either be facilitated face-to-face or on a trainer-led virtual course. Please note that we often follow up our training courses with digital resources and other materials to help course participants consolidate their learning or to refresh their memory at a later date.
Absolutely! We always enjoy working with charities and not-for-profit organisations. We can easily tailor any of our course content, case studies and resources to be relevant for any of our clients, regardless of sector.

Select your training
Not to worry – we’ve devised a helpful and free simple financial Learning Needs Analysis – a questionnaire for you to share with your team that will help you determine which training areas need the most attention. It might be that your team needs to improve across a number of different financial and commercial areas – we can design a bespoke in-house programme that does just that.
Alternatively, you can contact us for a no-obligation conversation to discuss the financial and commercial learning that your team would benefit from. Our expert trainers will be happy to guide and assist you in identifying your team’s specific learning requirements and to then develop a solution that exceeds your expectations.
Our courses can be as advanced or as basic as your team requires. Whether your requirement is at board level, entry level, or anywhere in between, we focus on conveying the relevant information in an innovative, effective way – one that fits both the objectives of the group that we are working with as well as your organisation’s culture.
Although our trainers steer clear of inaccessible jargon or technical language regardless of the level that we are working at, we can cater for a range of abilities within the same workshops so that your employees can all participate in the same training programme together. This is great for helping your people to work well as a team on financial and commercial goals and we are always conscientious in ensuring that everyone benefits from the learning activities.
As part of our training services, we recommend that a Learning Needs Analysis is undertaken for your team so that we can gauge the starting positions of each course participant. This way, we can design a course that meets the varied needs of your team members and therefore delivers maximum value for your organisation.
Yes – in fact, we know that by creating bespoke programmes and materials, the outcomes of the learning are vastly improved when compared to the use of generic materials and open courses. We can work with you to understand your team’s level of financial and commercial understanding and pinpoint topics and tools which will greatly benefit them. From this analysis, we can design and deliver a bespoke programme designed to build up their understanding to the level your organisation requires.
The programmes we design aren’t limited to a classroom-style format – we can build a bespoke learning pathway for your team using a variety of training methods and materials:
- In-house, face-to-face workshops
- Trainer-led remote learning
- Business simulations and games
- Case studies
- Group work
- Hybrid learning experiences
- E-learning content curation
- Comprehensive workbooks
- Work based application tasks
- Coaching
- Pre- and/or post-course reading
- Guided practical action planning
- Audio and visual learning resources
- Email follow-ups
- Mentoring
From one-off business simulations to longer-term bespoke learning programmes, by partnering together we can design the most effective pathway for your people.
