CPD for international organisations

As globalisation increases, training and re-training staff is likely to become even more vital; we are experienced in supporting organisations to develop and deliver courses for global challenges – the opportunities of AI and big data, how to develop the next generation of teachers and technology leaders, the future of our cities or tackling the health inequalities and identifying the causes of disease.

The University offers programmes in a wide variety of subjects. These are some of the subjects that can be developed into bespoke training programmes.
