creative problem solving training

Course Overview

NEW!! PTP has introduced a new product called Face-to-Face Live. This is where the delegate can log on from anywhere and attend a live training session. Delegates can either join our public course dates (limited to a maximum of 10) or you can arrange a 1-2-1 or a session just for a group of your colleagues even if they are all working from home. Click here for full details. To see forthcoming public course sessions for this course look at the dates to the right of this page.

This creative problem solving course looks at the various problems that we face in our working lives. By identifying and utilising a systematic approach, we are better able to breakdown the problem into manageable chunks. Case studies are used to ensure that the skills learned can be immediately transferred to the workplace.

This training course is available throughout the UK.
