Objectives

Practical outcomes for safer decisions

Improve virtual delivery with practical guidance on Teams, engagement, breakout rooms, screen sharing, accessibility and confident online facilitation.

The course is designed to help staff recognise risk early, apply clear procedures, and make calm, defensible choices under pressure.

Target Audience

Built for the staff who face the risk

Teachers, lecturers, trainers and organisations delivering live online learning.

Delivery can be adapted around role, sector, incident history, and the confidence your organisation needs delegates to build.

Core Learning Modules

What delegates will work through

  • Plan a clear and professional Microsoft Teams training session
  • Use polls, breakout rooms, screen sharing and whiteboards to involve participants
  • Improve lighting, backgrounds, invitations, host controls and online presence
  • Use captions, translation and recording options to support accessibility
  • Facilitate discussion and collaboration confidently in a virtual room

Why this training matters

For staff managing public-facing risk

This course supports practical workplace risk management, clear procedures and safer decisions for staff working with members of the public.

Group size

15 delegates, maximum 20

Sessions are designed for up to 15 delegates, in person and online. Smaller groups keep everyone involved in the discussion and scenario practice, which is where most of the learning happens. We can take up to 20 where an organisation needs it, with an additional charge for each delegate above 15.

Lead time

Up to five weeks

Allow up to five weeks from confirmation to the first session, depending on trainer availability and your own staff availability. That window lets the session be built around your organisation: reviewing your policies and procedures, working your reporting routes and organisational requirements into the material, and giving your teams enough notice to secure diary time and attend. Where a programme runs across several sessions, the full schedule is agreed up front so you can plan cover.

Delivery

In person or live online

In-house at your premises, or live online with a trainer. Both formats are tutor-led and cover the same content, discussion and scenario work.

Coverage

UK and Ireland in person, international online

In person across England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Live online sessions can be delivered to teams anywhere in the world. Training is delivered in English, with live subtitles through Microsoft Teams or PowerPoint, which can translate captions into the delegate's own language. Where legislation differs across the UK and Ireland, we research the law that applies to you and build it into the material rather than delivering the England and Wales position by default.

Larger programmes

Rolled out across multiple sessions

Larger workforces are trained as a planned programme rather than a single booking, with the schedule agreed at the start of the contract and worked around your shift patterns and operational cover. Where travel is involved we will look at running sessions on consecutive days, and half-day courses are often best delivered back to back, morning and afternoon on the same day. Where back-to-back half days are agreed there is a saving on the half-day rate. Sessions are delivered by our experienced associate trainers, and we prioritise continuity of trainer wherever availability allows.

Cost

Quoted for each programme

We do not publish prices. Cost depends on group numbers, delivery format, travel, overnight accommodation where the location requires it, and how much bespoke design a programme needs. Any figure published here would be misleading. Tell us what you need and we will quote for it.
