Do you want to learn more about the world of internal communication?
Whether you’ve recently discovered IC or have been working in the field for years, there’s a training option for you.
There are three ways I can train you: in-person at the All Things IC Hub, remotely via Teams, or at your own pace via Online Masterclasses.
This article will guide you through the options, to help you choose the right one for you.
I also offer bespoke Masterclasses, which can be taught face-to-face or remotely on a topic of your choice. Recent topics I’ve written include a Measurement Masterclass, How to prepare for IPO and How to work well with stakeholders.
My brand new Online Masterclass: How to write an internal communication strategy will be available soon via the All Things IC Online Masterclasses website.
Monthly Masterclasses at the All Things IC Hub
I teach in-person Monthly Masterclasses at the All Things IC Hub in West London.
The Hub is my dedicated training space, which I opened in 2020 for Masterclasses and team days. It’s designed to be a comfortable and inspiring space for internal communicators to enjoy using.
Monthly Masterclasses are open to in-house IC pros and there’s a range of topics to choose from including Effective Internal Communication, Change Communication, Strategic Internal Communication and Comms Director Masterminds.
We work together in a small group, which gives you the opportunity to meet with peers, build your network and learn together. It’s a confidential and welcoming environment and I love working with you face-to-face to help you succeed.
Upcoming 2022 Monthly Masterclass dates include:
- 16 March: Effective Internal Communication. For new IC pros or up to three years’ experience.
- 30 March: Comms Director Mastermind. Confidential group. Four places. For senior-level Heads of IC or Directors of IC.
- 20 April: Change Communication. Come and learn about change communication theory and how to turn it into reality.
- 11 May: Strategic Internal Comms. For IC pros who want to take the next step in their IC career.
- 25 May: Effective Internal Communication. For new IC pros or up to three years’ experience.
- 15 June: Comms Director Mastermind. Confidential group. Four places. For senior-level Heads of IC or Directors of IC.
Members of the Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) can claim CPD points for attending my courses. Everyone will receive a certificate of completion at the end of the day, which is your attendance evidence.
Future dates will be added soon. Keep an eye on the What’s on for Comms pros page to see the latest listings.
