Training
Using psychology in our training
By using a less formal, very practical manner of presenting both training and mentoring programmes we change perceptions of business support. This means our offer resonates positively with those who avoid traditional and more formal sources of support.
Our team of mentors is made up of current and former entrepreneurs. People who have experienced all the highs – and the lows – of businesses. This means they have a real insight into the challenges being faced by the enterprises they work with.
Training that focuses on clear, practical goals
Established business people, sole traders, and self-employed can feel threatened by the changes occurring within their marketplace. Start-ups may not know where to access support or even that is available.
Our expertise lies first in reaching those who would potentially benefit. Then by offering training that focuses on clear, practical goals, our mentors are able to help them identify barriers to grow their businesses leading to a potentially beneficial impact on the local economy.
