Delegates on a Keys Training business skills course
Three ways to train

Your offices, our venue, or online.

Train at your own offices, at our Preston venue, or live online. Every course is tailored before the day: we ask what your team actually needs, adapt the content to your real documents and scenarios, and match a trainer who knows your sector. Fees are charged per day for the group rather than per delegate, and post-course support is included.

At your offices

We bring the trainer and materials to you, anywhere across Lancashire and the surrounding area: Chorley, Leyland, Blackburn, Burnley, Blackpool, Lancaster, Wigan and Bolton. Usually the most cost-effective option, as trainer travel is included in the fee.

At our Preston venue

Training rooms at our Leyland head office, at Cotton Court in Preston city centre and at Strawberry Fields in Chorley.

Live online

The same trainer and the same tailored content, delivered over Microsoft Teams in small groups or one to one. Useful for hybrid teams or where people are spread across several sites.

FAQs

Training in Preston: your questions.

What training courses do you run in Preston?

We deliver our full range in Preston: Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, Project, Visio and Microsoft 365; Microsoft Copilot and Power BI; management and leadership programmes; communication, confidence and personal impact courses; sales, service and commercial training; and compliance and wellbeing courses including GDPR, cyber security awareness, mental health awareness and emergency first aid.

Do you deliver training at our own Preston offices?

Yes. Onsite delivery at your premises is how most of our clients train. We bring the trainer and all course materials to you, anywhere across Lancashire and the surrounding area, and trainer travel is included in the fee. You only need a room and, for Microsoft courses, a computer for each delegate.

How much does training in Preston cost?

Courses are priced as a day rate for the whole group rather than per delegate, so the cost per person falls as the group grows. The exact fee depends on the course, the group size and whether you train at your premises, at our venue or online. Call 0345 450 0051 or send an enquiry and we will come back with a fixed quote, usually the same day.

How many people can attend one course?

Most one-day courses work best with up to eight to twelve delegates, depending on the subject. Smaller groups, one to one coaching and split sessions across two half-days are all available.

Can you tailor the course to our team?

Yes, and it is included in the fee. Before the day we run a short training needs analysis, then adapt the content to fit. We often work with your own spreadsheets, documents or workplace scenarios so what is learned applies immediately.

Which areas around Preston do you cover?

All of Lancashire and the surrounding area, including Chorley, Leyland, Blackburn, Burnley, Blackpool, Lancaster, Wigan, Bolton and into South Cumbria. We also run courses in Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Birmingham and London.
