FAQs - Online Cultural Awareness Webinars

Here some quick answers to common questions about our cultural training via webinar.

1. Who are the webinars for?

Literally anyone who works with the British in any capacity.

They are ideal for organisations that already work in the UK or those looking to better understand the UK prior to venturing in. We train people at all levels and from every sector.

2. How many people can we have on our webinar?

It’s up to you. We have delivered to hundreds before but obviously this would be more of a presentation as opposed to an intimate coaching session. If you want something interactive then 4-12 people is good.

3. How long are they?

Again, this is up to you. It could be 1, 2, 4 or 6 hours or could even be a series of webinars delivered over the course of weeks.

4. What can you teach us about the UK?

Our experts can pretty much focus on whatever aspects of British culture that you like, whether these are about business or society in general.

5. Can we record the webinar?

Absolutely. Learners will receive an MP4 recording of the training once the webinar is complete. We are also able to edit the webinar and upload it onto an online learning platform, with quizzes, case studies and resources for future learners.

6. Who are your experts?
