Black Isle E-learning is active at last

October 28th, 2009

Our e-learning presentation skills programme has been activated this week. All those who are too busy to arrange a workshop in a classroom can now learn how to engage their audience, in their own home or workplace and in their own time. Check out the web and demo at www.black-isle.com/elearning. Many thanks to our sponsors Mars Inc. and Enbridge Inc. who have helped us fine tune what we are thrilled with as a world beating on-line learning programme.

We are re-instating the Interview Skills programmes

August 11th, 2009

It seems that many people are still looking for jobs. Nailing the interview is one of the keys to success. We have devised a two half-day workshop designed to achieve as much practice as possible in handling the interview. And we have kept the cost right down. For information about the workshops contact jmiers@black-isle.com

Black Isle e-Learning. We are almost on-line.

August 6th, 2009

We are just putting the finishing touches to the e-learning programme on Presentation skills. The eight modules consist of videos of the famous Black Isle workshops. Managers can now experience the training online, at their workplace, in their own time, at a fraction of the cost of travelling to a classroom for a couple of days. There will also be a an interactive aspect where they can get real-time feedback from a qualified instructor, online. Watch this space! We hope to put up a video that will demonstrate the quality of the e-learning programme.
