Workshops are normally run on a request only basis. Prices are fully inclusive of all costs, regardless of location. We ask that your organisation arrange the venue and catering, and participant numbers. We are happy to negotiate prices for adapting workshop content/procedures. Discounts can be negotiated if more than one workshop is run at the same location. Contact us to discuss your needs. The following cost is for a typical 2-day workshop: one day on presentation skills, one day on media skills. If you'd like something different, please call us.
