As a CIPD-qualified Learning & Development Practitioner, I am a confident and effective workplace trainer and have been developing and providing training to staff and volunteers for over a decade.

I currently offer the following courses – the content of which can be combined or tailored to suit your needs. I am always happy to discuss the development of new courses for your team.

EVALUATION AND RESEARCH SKILLS

‘Jenni was very knowledgeable and able to back up questions with case studies. I feel better equipped to tackle evaluation with more confidence’

‘Logically structured and covered all the right stuff. I know more than I thought I did’

‘Jenni has a great ability to make quite dull topics engaging and to make sure that we realise evaluation shouldn’t be dull!’

MEDIA AWARENESS AND USING SOCIAL MEDIA TOOLS

‘Lots on the new social media. Useful update and reminders on media release writing’

Museums staff member, Museums Worcestershire

‘I thought the training session was especially good for staff that were worried about new technology. Jenni’s approach was informal and made them feel at ease. We came away with lots of ideas on how we can use the ipad to promote our mobile museum.’
