Delivered by local experts, our popular Business Training Programme will offer engaging, interactive workshops and 121 sessions to help provide valuable knowledge and skills development to local businesses.

Bookings will open from Friday 5 December, the week of Small Business Saturday, for workshops taking place in early 2026.  Businesses can express their interest now, with some workshops, 121 sessions and online resources already available to book or access.
