Learning Method
We follow the ICML learning model
Learning can be hard. At ICML we realise this and therefore we try to make our sessions as interactive and engaging as we can. Don’t expect ‘chalk-‘n-talk’ sessions at ICML. Our facilitators are just that: they facilitate, they don’t teach. Our expert facilitators are highly experienced in getting the very best out of you. We use the latest scientific insights and translate them to highly practical everyday application in the workplace.
Working in small groups of minimum 5 and maximum 14 people means that the group has just the right size for great interaction, group discussions and personal attention. The facilitator aims to tailor the course specifically to each group.
