Self-study Training
Why self-study?
If staff are scattered over several locations, work unsociable hours or work from home, it may be difficult to participate in face-to-face training. With self-study courses you study when it suits you and at your own pace.
Licences
Whether you are one person looking to improve your writing skills or need to train several hundred people, self-study could be the answer. Valid for a whole year, you can buy one licence per person or bulk licences. We can also help with integration into your LMS.
