Training & events

The saying ‘Tell me and I forget, show me and I remember, involve me and I truly understand’ is behind the training we offer. We want our courses and materials to leave participants with confidence to apply what they have learnt to their work. We strive to support people through their learning whether that is through our in-person events, our online courses or our recorded presentations.

HBCA uses Thinkific to host our online-only training courses and recorded presentations.
