Kind notes from our training customers

“The service was faultless from start to finish…

Abby, as our main point of contact quite simply makes my life easy when it comes to all the scheduling and admin. She understands my needs and picks up on every nuance and is able to follow up on this.

From this, we have gone on to design a bespoke management programme and run some presentation skills courses, each and every time, the service is great leaving me confident I am going to get a great product and my employees get what they need from a range of fab facilitators.”

Amy Hanson
Talent Manager, AEGIS London

“Everything BiteSize Learning has delivered for us over the past year has been fantastic

The trainers have been exceptional, and the sessions have gone down really well. I am looking for more opportunities to work with BiteSize, and I am really happy to recommend them to colleagues – even when I have not seen the course!”

Julie Hyett
UK Talent Lead, Aon Risk Solutions

“BiteSize has perfected the art of getting a lot into a short space of time in a very interactive way…

…it's really exciting stuff! They have a big role to play and will always feature as I know they get behind the topic really well and have a good range to offer. The willingness to work in partnership – to adapt and pilot the programme – has led to improvements which have filled a gap and made the programme easier to sell internally.”

Andrea Farrell, Organisational Development and Learning Manager, University of the Arts London

“The 1:1 coaching sessions were incredibly valuable and led to a significant increase in effectiveness at work.

Meanwhile, the feedback from the training sessions has been universally positive. It gave people tools to be much more confident in interacting, which was exactly the aim! This programme had a great impact, and there has been a lot of interest including from our senior management, stimulated by the generation of practical ideas for business improvement which are now being put into action.”

Stephen Fisher, Hannah Purves and Ron Northedge
Markel International

“The training sessions are extremely engaging, and Bitesize is always happy to mould them to suit our business.

We are a very young start-up, and for many of our staff this is their first or second job, so we are always looking for ways to develop their skills and empower our global team. Bitesize have been extremely accommodating to our needs, and our trainer brings his own personal experiences into the training which allows us to relate the theory to real life.

Working with the team members at Bitesize to organise the sessions and get set up has been extremely easy and smooth – essential, as this is in addition to my actual job role!”

Lucy Partner
Head of Partnerships and Client Accounts at Yoke Network

“We have been working with Paul and his team at BiteSize Learning for over two years now, and we are delighted with their service.

We run a complex operational and logistic programme to support environmental science across the polar regions. We employ a diverse group of people – ranging from scientists, marine officers, pilots, engineers, chefs, divers, crane drivers, accountants and HR professionals and many more, each one with their own learning objectives and preferences. A large number of staff work remotely (on an Antarctic station or a polar vessel or a plane) for many months a year with limited access to wi-fi.

Despite these challenges, Paul managed to develop a flexible modular programme to support their professional development. He also developed a management programme which looked at supporting and empowering staff deployed to work in the Antarctic regions. The programme looked at how to facilitate difficult conversations, how to build a team capability that recognised everyone differences, and how to look after each other’s wellbeing. All of this once we were coping with the constraints of the pandemic.

What Paul brought to the table was firstly a genuine interest and admiration for what our staff do and the ability to empathise with people and relate to them which makes those difficult conversations easier.”

Mariella Giancola
Head of HR at British Antarctic Survey

“Our team really enjoyed and learned a lot through the Unconscious Bias course we did.

They offer an easy booking system, friendly, professional staff – and our trainer was absolutely brilliant. I highly recommend BiteSize Learning.”

Jem Thomas
Youth Justice Quality Assurance Manager, Youth Justice Service at Southampton City Council

“Our BiteSize account manager has been friendly and efficient, always offering good advice and flexible solutions.

BiteSize Learning partnered with us to deliver a modular Leadership Training Programme for all our managers and supervisors in the Business, and they have also delivered training in Mental Health Awareness and Mental Health First Aid. The trainers are professional and experienced – and we have received great feedback from the course attendees.”

Louise Kelly
Learning & Development Manager, Farnborough Airport

“It’s been great to partner with a team who really listens, is flexible and is responsive to our needs.”

From the very first interaction, the experience was fantastic.

Everyone we interacted with was friendly, helpful, professional, timely and knowledgeable. The learning sessions themselves mirrored the experience we had encountered leading up to them, in regard to professionalism, effectiveness and competence.

The trainers were extremely skilled, and managed to engage us and stretch us in a very safe and friendly environment. Each course was pitched perfectly, and met the initial brief and discussions we’d had pre-session.

The whole team enjoyed their training and have spent time reflecting and discussing the concepts and knowledge they’ve learned. We’ve even been inspired to do internal follow up work around the various topics and have already noticed staff discussing within their individual teams.

Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the service, the standard and the value for money we have received from BiteSize Learning.”

Richard Welsh
Training & Development Co-ordinator
County Durham & Darlington NHS Trust

“We received extremely positive feedback from attendees.

We asked BiteSize to deliver a presentation skills course to a group of experienced presenters – BiteSize understood and delivered on the brief perfectly.

We ran out of room on our fridge, so we’re putting it here instead.
