Soft Skills training — common questions

Do I need any experience to start Soft Skills training?

It depends on the course — our Foundation courses assume little or no prior knowledge, while intermediate and advanced courses build on the basics. Not sure where you fit? Try our Course Advisor or get in touch and we'll point you to the right one.

Can I learn Soft Skills online, or only in a classroom?

Many courses run live online as well as in-class in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch. Each date shows its format, so you can pick what suits you.

Can you train my whole team?

Yes — any Soft Skills course can be delivered in-house at your workplace, tailored to your team's tools and goals. See our in-house training to enquire.
