THE SESSION WAS ENGAGING AND RELEVANT TO STUDENT RECRUITMENT DELIVERY STAFF WHO HAD JUST STARTED IN THEIR ROLE, BUT ALSO TO THOSE WHO HAD BEEN WORKING IN THE SECTOR FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS, WHICH IS A HARD BALANCE TO ACHIEVE. THE CONTENT WAS APPROPRIATE AND EASILY RELATED BACK TO OUR DAY JOBS, THE INTERACTIVE ELEMENTS REALLY MADE THE DIFFERENCE AND ENCOURAGED ATTENDEES TO GET INVOLVED, IN A WAY THAT FELT COMFORTABLE TO INDIVIDUALS. IT CREATED A REAL BUZZ IN THE ROOM AND LOTS OF PEOPLE WENT AWAY TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY WERE GOING TO IMPLEMENT THE TRAINING.
A TRUE TESTAMENT TO SPEAK EASY’S PERSONABLE DELIVERY APPROACH, ALONGSIDE AN ENGAGING AND INFORMATIVE SESSION! THANK YOU!
Student Recruitment Manager, The University of Sheffield
The fact that you have openly allowed us to talk about challenges that we're facing with staff, students or parents - we can all relate to it in different ways.
You had a group of people that were business staff, curriculum staff - so we're all dealing with very different challenging conversations. For me, you've already changed the way I feel about challenging conversations, starting Monday!
Director of Curriculum, Bridgend College
Super engaging, enthusiastic, inspiring and entertaining. The training was a safe place for people to try and fail. there was a great atmosphere the whole day - the techniques are not only going to be useful in the job we are currently doing but super useful for any future roles
I would 100% recommend Speak Easy to anyone looking for CPD sessions. I'm looking forward to putting the techniques into practice

We originally worked with Loud Speaker (Speak Easy's sister company) to deliver workshops for our students which were very well received, after the positive feedback we decided to run similar sessions with Speak Easy for our staff
The session really pushed staff our of their comfort zone, got them working together and talking across different teams. The problem we have now is that the staff who didn't attend have fear of missing out so we will definitely be working with them again
From the initial contact through to delivery, the service was professional and the team were really responsive. My advice, you won't regret it!
