Where we train
Even though we’re London based, we’re very happy to deliver training anywhere in the UK, Europe and beyond. We can come to your offices or we’ll help you find a suitable local venue if that’s more convenient. Either way, we never charge for travel time!  We’re big fans of face to face delivery but equally skilled at virtual learning if that works better. Perhaps a blended approach is right for you? Â
Please bear in mind that we no longer have our own training facilities nor do we run open or public courses.
We also have a fully staffed office in Cairo that supports our work in the MENA region. If you have a query relating to that part of the world, please contact nirvana@phoenix-training.co.ukÂ
When we started
Set up in 1995, we’ve always retained our founder Bill’s original vision that we passionately believe in ‘helping make people better at what they do’. This was originally embodied by the delivery of over 100 different disciplines across sales, personal development and management, utilising the support of some amazing associates.
As we emerged from the recession in the 2000’s, we recognised it was important to sharpen our focus, adopt a more personalised approach and build a full-time training team.
This process has continued at pace and we now specialise in management & leadership programmes that utilise the latest technologies to ensure you’ll get the best results.
It’s been quite a journey and we hope you’ll be part of our future.
