Open Programmes with CPD Accreditation Online

Every team faces challenges. Sometimes it’s a conversation that turns difficult. Sometimes it’s communication that keeps missing the mark. For others, it’s the constant pressure of too much to do in too little time. And for many, it’s knowing how to support mental health in the workplace with confidence.

That’s why we’ve designed four focused, half-day, CPD-accredited online open programmes. Each one tackles a different challenge managers and leaders face — giving you the flexibility to choose the one that fits your current needs.
