Live class
With a certified trainer and a group of other business owners, at our training room or on Zoom.
The trainer works through your own business with you in class.

Certificates that mean something
Every course gives you two certificates, each with a number anyone can check on our website.
- Certificate of Completion: when you finish the course and your work is approved.
- Certificate of Competence: when you have put it into practice in your business, signed by the business owner or managing director. This is the one that shows a changed business, not just attendance.
