FAQ

What benefits will a training program bring my team?

We improve the efficiency of organisations in Sussex, London, Birmingham and the rest of the UK through stress management training, communication training, time management training and leadership training and development courses. We will increase your productivity, help you make more money or meet more targets. We focus on the areas that you feel require attention, tailoring our workshops and business training courses to your needs. We teach skills which will continue to benefit your organisations long after the training course.

What do your training courses consist of?

It depends on the subject matter and your needs, though our training and development is normally highly interactive and experiential. A stress management training workshop for example may involve presentation, discussion, simple stretches, awareness training, time management training, relaxation techniques, listening and communication training and breathing techniques. In addition to stress reduction other areas we work with include team building, leadership training, customer service training, time management training, change management, anger management training, appraisal training, HR training and conflict resolution. Our training courses are supported by pre-training needs analysis and post training support. As well as half day and day-long workshops, follow-up sessions, ongoing training courses and regular support are offered. We enjoy building long-term training relationships with clients and providing more than "tick-box" learning.

How are your workshops different from other training and development courses?

Integration Training's approach is unique in a number of ways.

Firstly we deal with the whole person at work, especially how people embody who they are and what they stand for. Cognitive knowledge alone is not sufficient to bring change - we've all read the books but can we embody it? We are the UK specialists in Embodied Management Training, sometimes called somatics or embodied learning, working in Sussex, London, Birmingham and the rest of the country.

Secondly, our training is experiential and highly interactive with practice and real-world application at its heart.

Thirdly, the Integration Training approach is social - it's about how people get on which each other - and is therefore particularly beneficial for team building. We work in a very human manner, where you can celebrate your team's distinct approach and the diversity of your group. Nobody in Sussex, Birmingham, London or the rest of the UK trains teams as we do.

Where does your training come from?

Our training courses combines practices from various disciplines, especially psychology and elements of physical training arts such as aikido and tai chi. Aspects are also drawn from traditional business training and development, sports science, emotional intelligence research, co-operative games, somatics (the study of the conscious body), linguistics, executive coaching and meditation. Training participants learn through active participation using a body, mind and emotion approach which is more effective, engaging and long-lasting than conventional training.

Who can participate in the training courses and how much does the training cost?
