FAQ
Do you offer this workshop in-person rather than over Zoom?
Not anymore. After facilitating many in-person and online workshops I learned that:
- The levels of satisfaction, engagement, and reported value are the same.
- Online workshops allow you to take in the information in parts (2hrs at a time) rather than all at once, which really helps with implementation success.
- Online workshops are cheaper for you as there are no venue and catering costs to cover, nor travel and accommodation costs.
Can I charge this event to my company?
Absolutely. Companies have allocated budgets for professional trainings like these and you can use your yearly budget for this training. Please talk to your manager about acquiring a ticket through your company.
