Why webinars and podcasts?

Budget cuts across the public sector mean that the resources to pay for traditional face-to-face training are diminishing, yet the need to keep up-to-date and fulfil CPD requirements is as strong as ever.

Webinars and podcasts offer many of the advantages of face-to-face training - including the ability to put questions to the course presenter - and also offer the flexibility to be studied at the office, at home, or even on the move via a smartphone or laptop computer.
