Our Tech Savvy Webinars target common training areas with practical knowledge and examples that are directly transferable to the workplace. Our presenters know time is precious, so we keep the webinars focused and cost effective. Tech Savvy’s are ideal for junior and intermediate staff, or for those collective training sessions. That’s not to say that senior staff can’t attend, as they are great as a refresher!
