3 Our ACT live training workshops
Our live training events include:
Real-time interaction
Engage in real-time interaction with the presenter and other participants. This facilitates immediate feedback, clarifications, and discussions, enhancing the learning experience.
Personalised guidance
Our presenters can address individual questions, concerns, and challenges, adapting the content to the participants’ level of understanding. All our sessions include a ‘live chat’ option which allows specific situations or questions from attendees to be addressed.
Collaborative learning
Live training often involves group activities, discussions, and exercises that promote collaborative learning. Participants can learn from each other’s experiences, share insights, and engage in meaningful discussions, fostering a richer learning environment. At Contextual Consulting we are fortunate to have an international audience, which means you get an opportunity to share the experience with practitioners from different backgrounds and who help a diverse population of clients.
Accountability and motivation
The structured nature of live training, with fixed schedules and instructor-led sessions, helps participants stay accountable and motivated. The presence of a live instructor and fellow participants can provide a sense of commitment and encouragement to actively participate and complete the training.
Exclusivity
Some of our presenters are happy to have a live workshop recorded and made available through our on-demand library, but sometimes a speaker only delivers live events.
Please note, if you register for our live workshop and are unable to attend for any reason, we will make the recording and all resources available to you for up to 6 months.

Flexibility and convenience
On-demand training offers flexibility in terms of access and scheduling. Participants can learn at their own pace and choose the timing and duration of their training sessions according to their individual preferences and availability.
Self-paced learning
On-demand training allows individuals to learn at a pace that suits their individual learning style and needs. Participants can review and revisit content as needed, spending more time on challenging topics or skipping over material they already understand.
