Our course is a unique and balanced blend of theory, hands-on expertise and practical workshop sessions with emphasis on industry applicable case studies to encourage analytical and problem-solving skills plus varied heuristics to master navigating parts of a project with few tangible inputs. A dedicated day with an expert on ‘soft skills’ to promote your ability to resolve conflicts, effectively communicate and actively innovate in the workplace.
Workshop sessions conclude each day, giving participants the opportunity to consolidate, apply and grasp the techniques and learnings from the day. This 5-day course includes follow-up revision sessions 2 and 4 weeks following the course. Participant numbers are limited, in order to maintain a high quality, effective, hands-on and relevant learning experience.
