Course questions
How are virtual sessions run?
Live, instructor-led sessions on Microsoft Teams or Zoom, with breakout rooms for exercises, the same materials as the classroom and short breaks every 90 minutes. You need a stable internet connection and a webcam.
Can this course be run for our team only?
Yes. We deliver it privately, online or at your premises, and use examples from your own systems. In-house delivery is usually more cost-effective for six or more participants.
