Commissioned Training Services

• British Council Chevening Programme

The Centre offers commissioned training services in response to requests from clients and to their specification. Courses can be delivered both in the UK and overseas for groups ranging from 6 to 30 participants.

The Centre offers substantial experience in training needs assessment, course design, training materials development, choice of training methods, arrangements for study visits and tours or visiting speakers, along with highly developed expertise in course administration and course evaluation.

Another aspect of the work of the Centre in this area is the development, management and evaluation of training capacity within partner organisations.

Clients include aid agencies, overseas governments and corporations, and non-government organisations both in the UK and overseas.

We are currently running a range of courses under the British Council Chevening Programme, funded by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office. These include the Indian Women in Leadership and Management Course and a number of the new Fellowship courses including those in Public Sector Reform and in Economic Governance and Reform. These courses last 12 weeks and are based in Bradford.
