All our Cultural Awareness Training courses are designed to meet the specific needs of our clients depending on their specific requirements and existing skills set. A Cultural Awareness Training course typically includes:

Approach

Cultural Awareness Training courses are available seven days a week, 365 days a year, either at one of our training centres in London, Paris, Frankfurt and New York or at your offices in any location worldwide. We usually recommend a one or two day course but can also offer a more flexible format to suit your schedule.

Suitably tailored cultural awareness materials will be used throughout your Cultural Awareness Training course and your trainer will provide a balance of structured input and discussion of case studies and scenarios relevant to your own particular context.

The most appropriate training format, content and approach for your Cultural Awareness Training course will be discussed during your diagnostic consultancy.
