Student prizes up for grabs

Like last year, the company will be offering to university Brighton Business School students two awards in the form of public training courses for the 2018–2019 academic year.

One is a two-day Essential Management Skills course, accredited by the Chartered Management Institute and Continuing Professional Development (CPD), and the second is a two-day Essential Selling Skills course, accredited by the Institute of Sales Management and CPD. Both are run each month at locations throughout the UK.

The courses will have attendees from a management or sales role, to help with networking and building relationships with potential employers and with employability.
