Our different types of training
Workshops
These are open, tutor-led training courses with no more than 15 attendees. Focussing on developing new skills, workshops are best for individuals or 2 – 3 colleagues who have identified similar learning needs. All workshops include opportunities to practise and receive feedback.
Insight Series
This new series of facilitated events are best for more senior experts in their field to network with colleagues at a similar level, to discuss contemporary issues affecting their industry and practise. Each event will result in a summary report, unique to the event, delivered to each participant.
Seminars
Seminars are open forums, facilitated by trainers, for professionals at a similar level to discuss issues around a theme. Usually taking a round-table format, they’re best for experienced practitioners to gain and share theory, knowledge and experience, and benchmark against best practice via case studies.
Conferences
Each of our flagship conferences explores new legal developments in detail. With guest speakers who are experts in their field, and breakout sessions featuring Q&A and networking opportunities
