Our popular "Doing What Works" course is delivered virtually across 4 mornings using a mixture of presentation, group work, digital breakout rooms, polls, pre-work and homework.

Each morning we will set homework for delegates to complete and bring to the following morning, so additional time will need to be set aside by the delegate to complete this.
