  2. Managers who need the space to develop or improve new or existing skills.
  3. Those on a ‘fast track’ career programme.
  4. Staff who need to focus more on their career paths.
  5. Managers who have reached a career plateau and want to progress, but don’t know how to.
  6. Anybody developing a new career.

  8. Employees returning to work after a career break.
  9. Staff wanting to improve their skills and abilities.
  10. Individuals who respond better to alternative learning methods.
