In-House Training. Why not have your own course?
In-house or bespoke training, either as a one-off or a whole programme, we can tailor any programme to the needs of your organisation orspecific objectives you have, allowing you to benefit from development where every aspect is designed to improve your performance specifically.
A single days training typically costs just £1,650 + VAT for up to 20 people, possibly more, and this drops with the volume of work you engage us to do. A whole developmental programme could be delivered with significant further savings.
Partnership Programme
The mid-sized group, say 5-8 people, has always suffered from being slightly too small to cost effectively organise in-house training for and yet sufficiently large as to collective cost quite a bit to train via open courses. Not any more...
Medicology’s Partnership Programme is a stroke of pure brilliance, allowing participants to benefit from an in-house course at extremely low cost, possibly even FREE (yes, we did say that right). Trusts and groups of individuals can now benefit from bringing any of our open programmes in-house for as little as £0.00 per person. Let us tell you how.
