New consultation and engagement courses
In May we completed the spring session of our new training
course Practical Stakeholder Engagement one-day intensive.
The new format has gone down well: see what students said below.
The course covers consultation and engagement design, recruitment
and stakeholder analysis, plus the various engagement methods from
face-to-face workshops and meetings to the use of e-mail and the
web.
The course will be held again in the autumn in Bristol, Edinburgh,
Leeds and London. The autumn courses are already half-full so
we suggest that you book now if you want to be sure of a place.
