Tailored In-house Training

Organisations often decide that in-house training is the most effective way to improve the skills and enhance the personal development of their employees. There are many benefits of in-house training including;

  • Training can be scheduled at your convenience and scheduled according to your day-to-day activities
  • Training can be more focused, consistent and relevant to your organisation and employee needs
  • Delegates are more likely to have greater freedom of expression, interact better and as a consequence learn more effectively
  • Team dynamics will benefit
  • Training is more flexible and cost-effective

At GA Training, we have acknowledged expertise in developing and delivering bespoke training courses. We can customise course content and any existing course material and, create new material that reflects your organisation's culture and incorporates existing procedures and methods.

Based on their in-depth specialist knowledge and expertise, all our trainers are carefully matched with a client's training requirements. We ensure a stimulating programme presentation that engages the delegates and maximises learning potential. Our trainers will discuss your objectives, needs and desired outcomes prior to the course and will develop a customised training programme to fit.

Our in-house training is a highly cost effective and high-impact platform to develop three or more, members of your organisation. With groups of typically up to 10 delegates we will ensure that your organisation gets the maximum benefit from the training at a highly competitive rate. The training can be delivered at your premises, at a nearby hotel, or conference centre.

Train the Trainer

At GA, we offer a 'train the trainer' service to all our clients and are able to provide experienced trainers to help facilitate and enhance your own internal training. This coaching and development programme is relevant to both newly appointed trainers and those looking for a practical refresher.

Our facilitation service will re-energise your approach to your own in-house training sessions, and will offer tangible insights into how a trainer can harness the full potential of a delegate group by facilitating discussion and participation.

We will show you how to adapt training to suit different learning processes and practice ways to interact and engage with your audience by delivering stimulating training and workshop sessions.

One-to-One Coaching and Mentoring

All of our trainers are equally as comfortable training individuals as they are with larger groups.

If you think that your employees would benefit from individual attention, whether to focus and channel their energies, redress work-life balance or deal with stress and expectations, our coaches can offer you invaluable guidance, objectivity and a fresh perspective. Sometimes it helps just to discuss issues frankly with someone from outside the organisation.

Coaching sessions can also focus on specific work skills. For example, a one-to-one session on public speaking before an important conference speech can reduce nerves, develop focus and boost your performance on the big day.

One-to-one coaching offer many benefits to employees including;

  • Individuals taking on a new challenge or responsibilities
  • Executives or managers who want to enhance their leadership effectiveness to achieve organisational and career success
  • Work-driven employees who also want to compete effectively and successfully but want to retain a work life balance perspective
  • Managers who want an experienced 'sounding board' and coach mentor
  • Employees who want to improve their interpersonal, influencing, communication and presentation skills so as to be more effective with their boss, peers, subordinates, or employees in general

Coaching sessions usually last around two hours and are often grouped into blocks of four, six or eight sessions spread over a few weeks or months, as well as one-off events.

Open Courses

We regularly hold a broad range of Open Courses and our current schedule can be seen by clicking here or selecting Open Courses from the menu above. Our Open Courses are priced very competitively and run at leading conference centre venues across the country.

Our Open Course programmes range from one to two days, and usually involve a maximum of around eight to ten delegates. Because numbers are kept low, we can adapt the course delivery on the day to reflect the needs of the individual delegates and ensure they get an excellent range of tools and techniques to develop their skills.

All our Open Courses are delivered by highly experienced training consultants, and are a great way to share ideas and learning with people from other organisations and industries. For more information, email us at info@ga-training.com.
