Delivery

Method     The course will be delivered in a workshop style, with maximum delegate participation being encouraged. Where possible the course will use examples relevant to the individual delegates’ own situations, and the presenter will look for information on the delegates prior to the course in order to effect this or will have each delegate present themselves at the start of the course.

Numbers     The course, because of its workshop style, is best suited to a minimum of six participants, and a maximum of 14.

Target     The target audience is in general SME’s, these may be of no particular size in turnover, but would be those with repeat customer service as part of their trading, such as manufacturers. The course provides the best benefits to those companies who have repeated contact with their customers, difficulties with delivery schedules, returns problems, or complex infrastructure.

Visuals     The course can be presented either through a Multimedia Projector or through the use of an Overhead Projector. There is generally no use of props.

Materials     The delegates are provided with a set of Study Notes, which are in effect copies of the slides they are shown during the course. These are given to them at the start so that they may make notes on them and then use them for future reference when they will have a mental image attached to each page of activity during the course.

The course cost includes the presentation for the day, a Study Pack for each delegate, all visual aid materials, and the customising of up to 25% of the course for a specific emphasis.
