How is this course delivered

Virtual learning – this is where a classroom based experience is delivered online, via our ted Learning Hub.  Instead of a full day in the classroom, we break the session down into bite-size interactions.  Learners can join from any location and participate in the training experience.  Our virtual classroom features break out rooms, drama-based learning with our actors & discussions.

 We limit time in this environment to around 40-minute sessions to maintain learner engagement.

Very interactive course, discussion-based, left thinking of things to improve in our induction training. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.

Difficult Conversation

It was unusual to have such an interactive learning experience to really put in to practice the skills being taught. I found it all very enjoyable.

North Yorkshire Police

Putting it into practice

A pleasant session, smart and short

Entain

Difficult Conversation Training

I am a quiet and reflective person and find 'role play' type exercises very difficult and do not feel I learn from them due to the anxiety they cause me. However the set up with the actors made it very believable and the interaction from them was excellent.

North Yorkshire Police

Inclusion, Equality & Diversity

I think this course is excellent. Seeing scenarios helps people to identify how easily discrimination is spoken and not addressed. Many people like to say they are not raciest, sexiest, etc but their actions say something else. Great course

Lambeth and Southwark Mind

The subject matter was very relevant and could easily apply to the workplace. Much more effective allowing for reflection but also gaining extra knowledge about the law
