About Learning Courses

We understand the ever-changing challenges you face and the solutions you need in order to be at the forefront when helping others. From Train the Trainer (TTT) to Leadership Development Programme (LDP), our training courses have been designed specifically for the needs of the NGO and charity sector. Be it at our bespoke training centre in Birmingham or via our new virtual space, where all courses are delivered online or even at your office; we can support your team with a variety of courses. We ensure we deliver training in a way that suits the needs of your organisation and employees.
Where we work?
Since our foundation in 2013 we have trained humanitarian staff from over 40 countries and counting. Due to our access to some of the most hard-to-reach areas and our faith-based understanding we are able to train in humanitarian hot zones. Some of our training attendees hail from countries such as: South Sudan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq.
Our Learning and Development team were challenged to translate all of our courses into online learning programmes, due to the effects of Covid-19. As a result, we’re able to provide a learning experience to humanitarians in hard-to-reach areas.
