Why not have the training delivered in-house?

Courses can be delivered at a time and location of your choice, and can be tailored or developed specifically for your organisation. The in-house option offers the ideal opportunity to learn and address key issues with other local colleges and partners, and is particularly cost-effective for groups of six people or more.

Special offers

Early booking discount

Bookings made three months or more in advance of the course start date are eligible for a 10 per cent discount.

Multiple booking discount.

Three or more bookings made at the same time, by the same authorising manager, are eligible for a 10 per cent discount.

Subsidies may be available for certain groups; for more information, please call Tina Fahm on 020 7297 8449 or email tinafahm@wlnfe.org.uk
