I have recommended the course because it pulls business information together with a network of people to share experiences with. Being able to take that time out of the business to work on strategy and development was incredibly useful.

Rebecca Dean, Unico 3

The modules included in Help to Grow: Management touch on every part of a business from branding, to staff engagement and customer retention. The case studies we looked at were really interesting and relevant so I came out with ideas of how to further our business.

Josh Smith, Creative Picture Framing

If you’re in a small business and want to grow, but you’re not sure where to go, I would definitely recommend the Help to Grow: Management programme.
