Procurement Training Courses

Active learning for effective behavioural change

We offer a tailored, interactive and engaging experience.

ArcBlue’s workshops deliver real value by being practical, thought-provoking, challenging and fun. We believe that “active learning” is the most effective way to drive effective behavioural change. All of our workshops are centred on the delegates, and we ask our delegates to bring with them live examples from their workplace to discuss during the event. Our workshops combine content delivery, interactive activities and facilitated discussions. 

We can also create modular programs tailored to meet your current requirements. We listen and respond to clients’ business challenges, analyse what skills and capabilities are needed, then build workshops that deliver benefits.

Maximise Knowledge Transfer

Our workshops combine activities, games, facilitated discussion and content delivery. We believe that “active learning” most effectively impacts behavioural change. Our set training structure means we ensure a consistent and interactive approach to training delivery. Within each course, we combine:

Discussion

What is the module about, how have the participants experienced this, how does it apply to them? 

Activities

Putting the theory into practice by running group and individual tasks and activities.

Tools

Here’s what our clients say about our training

  • "The facilitator presented what can be a daunting subject matter in a clear, concise and interesting manner, with actual examples along the way to help myself and other participants better understand the training content."

  • Insightful; demonstrated solid understanding of material; used stories of past experience to elaborate a point. Pleasant manner and handled the online instruction well.

  • "Created a relaxed space to share. Very knowledgeable.

  • "The facilitator brought the group together and fostered engagement of all attendees through his knowledge of the topic and presentation style."

  • "Brilliant facilitator, kept the course interesting and encouraged participation which I think helped us all get more out of the concepts that were being spoken about. He seemed genuinely interested in our experiences and discussing them in relation to the course."

  • "Exceptional facilitator. One of the best I have had. Was great to have someone with a great deal of knowledge but also the capacity to teach and was both listening and tailoring examples and advice for the different participants."

  • Very good presenter. Best training I’ve been in. Wasn’t dry at any point, and linked in real situations well.”

  • "Very good awareness of the fact that we're all staring at screens for long periods of the day. Our facilitator ensured we took breaks, and reaffirmed if we needed a break we could.”

  • “The content delivered exceeded my expectations. The training materials were easy to comprehend and the exercises where relevant enough to be applicable to real wok scenarios. It also encouraged us to think.”

  • “I am really impressed by what the trainer explained the negotiation persuaders/phases/ploys in the course. This training leads to my thinking and review of my own negotiation ways and styles when interacting with suppliers. Such a good training. Very helpful.”
