“I would highly recommend the ProFormance programme. My staff did one-day workshops over 10 months. The benefit of this format is practical and retained learnings by participants. I witnessed measurable improvements in performance and attitudes of my staff. I also found the changes in them to be permanent. The content of the programme is excellent, and the trainers are first class. I would have no hesitation in recommending ProFormance programmes to any business wanting to improve its performance.” – Company Director

“I have had several sales staff participate in a ProFormance sales development programme with great success. The modular approach to training is a far more effective way for people learn new skills and be able to apply them in their roles. Working with a trainer over a 10 month period means they receive ongoing coaching, then get the opportunity to apply those learnings in real life situations. I have seen the difference in people’s performance producing measurable ROI for my company.” – Dominic Drumm, Director, Westferry Property Services
