Training Passports - booking a training program

The question of "Training Passports", where a delegate can take a number of different courses over a period of time, isn't a new one to me ... but it really wasn't appropriate for us to offer such a product in our early days. With a sprinkling of niche courses, it was highly unlikely that we could offer the sort of "pick and mix" that the typical delegate retraining for a new role would need. However, slowly things have changed and we DO now offer a wide range of courses that inter-relate to each other.

So I please to announce that, YES, we can offer you a Training Passport.

* Purchase 6 or more days of training for a delegate
* Delegate can choose any suitable courses / dates from our schedule
* £1500.00 for 6 days, add £200.00 for each extra day

The courses are to be taken within 15 months of initial order and payment, and each place is subject to our usual terms and conditions for public courses.

Let's see an example - for someone who's done some programming before and has put together a static web site, but now needs to get in deeper with an interactive site using databases ...

PHP Programming 4 days from 2nd February 2009
Object Oriented PHP 1 day on 6th February 2009
Linux Basics 1 day on 23rd February 2009
MySQL 2 days from 26th March 2009
PHP Techniques Workshop 2 days from 6th April 2009

That's 10 days of training ... under the passport scheme, total cost £2300.00 if 10 days are purchased at the same time, as opposed to £3000.00 for individual bookings for each course. All prices quoted in this article exclude VAT. Hotel rooms are available at our training centre - Well House Manor at the VAT inclusive delegate rate of £70 per night - to be paid at each stay.

Training passports must be booked ahead of time and paid for in full before completion of the first course. Should you wish to cut short a passport program for any reason, we will refund you the difference between the list prices of the courses taken and the fee paid, or allow you to transfer the credit to another delegate's passport.

Everyone is an individual ... so please email me - graham@wellho.net with your individual training needs.
