Inter-group discussions to share working experiences are also an important ingredient. Skills are introduced and then revisited at regular intervals throughout the training course. This helps reinforce and imbed skills and performance. The highly experienced instructors are also available for one-to-one discussions with delegates on issues or problems they may wish to raise.
