Training Courses

Emergency First Aid at Work 
with Worsley Training 
Tuesday 5 October - 10am-4pm 
Venue TBC 
£100+VAT per attendee 

This 6-hour course is the entry level for occupational First Aid where an organisation’s risk assessment requires emergency First Aiders. It gives participants the skills and knowledge to provide the initial treatment to any adult casualties in their workplace in a prompt, safe and effective manner. The course mixes theoretical and practical learning and assessment, and the accredited certificate lasts for three years. 

Louise Worsley is a professional teacher with an instinctive ability to make learning First Aid memorable and enjoyable. Louise has over fifteen years of hands-on First Aid experience, both as a global expedition leader and as a parent. She draws from this to bring First Aid to life for participants, providing practical training grounded in realistic examples of how the techniques could be used. You can see more of what Worsley Training has to offer on their website - https://worsleytraining.co.uk/

Understanding LinkedIn (Online Course)
with Naturally Social 
Tuesday 19 October - 2-4pm 
£20+VAT per attendee 

‘LinkedIn is a crucial platform in 2021 for talent attraction and business to business marketing.

In a candidate led market, are you getting the most out of your LinkedIn activity? In this session we will cover the LinkedIn Checklist:

•  Making sure your profile is up to date and optimised to maximise results
• Understanding the platform lay out and it’s features
• What content to create and other best practices.

Sources of Insight and Data (Online Course) 
with Scattered Clouds 
Thursday 14 October - 2-4pm
£20+VAT per attendee

This two-hour course will signpost delegates to a wide array of data sources with relevance to the tourism industry, exploring where to look, what to look for and how to use the information.  This will be achieved by illustrating what can be gleaned from each source to boost understanding of existing or potential markets.   

In addition to covering sources of data about tourism itself the session will cover where to find data that helps explain what drives visitor demand and behaviour, be that economic, demographic or technological. 

Data on its own is not insight; insight comes through interpretation and the course will highlight ways in which this can be achieved or accessed from existing sources.
