City Lit’s Employer Portfolio offers a programme of hand-picked courses, developed in line with demand from employers. The programme is designed to make the most of the wide range of expertise of City Lit’s professionally trained tutors and practitioners.
- Open courses – your staff can attend a session with employees from other organisations.
- Closed courses – you can request a course to run for your staff only.
- Bespoke courses – we can tailor-make a course to meet your specific training needs.
Assessing your needs
City Lit staff are happy to conduct an analysis of your training needs. We can help you decide if you require bespoke training or discuss the best way of delivering our existing programme to your employees, whether with an intensive short course or weekly sessions.
Short workshops and taster sessions
One to two hour versions of the courses in this guide are available if you want to try a subject out before arranging a full course, or if you find it difficult to release staff for a full day. In some subject areas, a short, intensive session can be enough for your staff to pick up the key skills they need.
Case study
BECTU, the union representing those working in areas such as broadcasting, entertainment and leisure, asked City Lit to run short workshops on their premises for their ‘Learning at Work Day’. Elly Baker, Head of Education and Training at BECTU, said, “The workshops were wonderful and contributed hugely to the success of the day.” Over 80 union members attended sessions on skills such as communicating with Deaf people and voice projection.
