Study with us
We have historically delivered Highfield Training in the training room as either an OPEN course where we would serve learners from a variety of companies or IN-HOUSE courses for organisations that wish to upskill many of their employees in one go. Where UK companies would like their own course, we have been very happy to accommodate their dates at their specified venue.
We intend to continue to offer both ‘in-person’ (2) and live online training over Microsoft Teams where we can easily share course content, encourage collaborative working and deliver teaching sessions.
