Operational training

Our specialist team can bring this unique area to you. Whether it’s food and beverage service training for fine dining or training your housekeeping team, a session can be delivered as a standalone event or as part of a larger bespoke programme.

Trainers Excellence Series

From short, on-the-job training within a department to a full programme of learning, our Trainers Excellence series combines theory and practical to give you the skills you need to train your teams at a certificated level. This series is suitable for all levels of experience and is facilitated by a seasoned master of training (up to eight people per session).

Sales Leaders Development Programme

The sales leader in any business has an important remit, usually covering many areas of responsibility, and of course delivering those all-important results. We’ve created a personalised training programme, giving you a choice of 12 areas of development so you can tailor your own learning.

We understand it’s not always easy to find time for in-person training. Our short virtual sessions recreate the learning experience with a close-knit, collaborative environment to enhance the learning experience.
