Verve Training
Verve Training offers a wide range of business writing and media training courses, designed to respond to the growing need of companies to improve and develop their communication skills. The company can either run courses at its delegates' offices or hire alternative facilities if this is not suitable. In addition to its standard courses, Verve can also supply bespoke training and one-to-one coaching. The company provides training across the UK. Verve believes what makes its courses uniquely effective is that all its business writing courses are taught by respected professional writers and journalists working in the national media today, who are highly practised both at producing clear, concise documents and in passing those skills on to others. The company also has specialised trainers, with a technical training, to teach employees with a technical or scientific background. Its media training sessions too are run by industry professionals, and Verve provides a variety of different courses, which include an introduction to working with the media, and how to develop effective presentation skills.
