What clients say about our QQI People Management Courses
“This was a very engaging course that was managed very well by [the tutor]. She was inclusive of all members of the group and she spoke from her wide range of experiences in the field of management.
Her clarity and pace of delivery was both encouraging and she allowed time and space for the class to own the process and the learning also. Despite an eclectic mix of class participants, she was very professional in her approach and in getting the best out of the class group learning also.
More time for such courses is always a wish and this management training programme could be made available to all staff members in companies to better understand how companies work and how best to develop management skills in their workforce.
I really enjoyed the delivery style of the facilitator and she managed to cover the material and include the class in this valuable learning and her experience and professionalism and human touch managed to get the best out of us and she managed to hold us in the learning experience of the course.
Thank you!”
“Our trainer was just fantastic. She got everyone engaged and comfortable getting involved. Hearing the sharing of experiences that she facilitated so well really helped to embed the learning.
The materials were very well chosen and we covered so much in such a relatively short time.
Would highly recommend this course to anyone who has moved into a management position and wants to get up to speed with key tasks.”
“The time available for group conversations, learning from other learners and the facilitator were strengths of this programme.
I would recommend to colleagues in the future. There is a wealth of information available within the slide deck and the facilitator brought this content to life.”
