Training
At The Knowledge Nexus we are very keen on the concept of knowledge transfer.
We have developed a suite of training courses to offer your team background knowledge and information on all aspects the industry, to help you better communicate requirements and expectations to customers and the supply chain, and grow your own knowledge.
We have split our courses into 3 ways of delivering:
Lunch & Learn Sessions
These are short, punchy, bite-sized courses designed to impart knowledge in a friendly and structured manner. These are between 30 and 45 minutes per session depending requirements and are usually remotely delivered.
Half Day Courses
These are more structured sessions on specific topics. These courses are especially helpful for design, buying and technical teams to strengthen their communications with the supply chain, but anyone dealing with product or suppliers will find these useful. These courses can be delivered on site or remotely.
Our ‘Expert’ Series
These are off site courses and run for at least 6 hours. They are heavily focussed on the technical aspects of the industry and aim to impart a great deal of knowledge in a single day. These courses will be product focussed and aim to leave the delegate with a high level of understanding in the relevant field and to become the go-to point of expertise within the company.
