Online or Onsite
Running our Employee Engagement Activities for Managers workshop was something that up until COVID, was always conducted onsite.
Of course, COVID completely shifted the way we need to think about training delivery and like our other courses, we have now optimised the course for online delivery.
Through the use of break out rooms, online quizzes and more the feedback from participants has been that they loved the online training and our customer review scores have continued to remain high!
But we understand some people like training conducted onsite where possible and with COVID restrictions starting to ease, we are now starting to take private course bookings with our public courses continuing to be offered online only for the foreseeable future.
