  • Perfect Bound organises tailor-made training for editorial staff.

Instead of sending your staff out the office for training and refresher courses, we can bring the training to you to deliver a course that exactly meets your needs. This saves time and allows you to know exactly what standards your staff should be reaching.

  • With a Perfect Bound course, managers and editors can now identify areas where skills could be improved and arrange a programme to fill that skills gap.

  • A Perfect Bound training consultant will then contact delegates to fine-tune the content of the course and make sure is suits the style of the publication. And we can also provide courses that fit in with staff schedules:

  • - Lunchtime (or breakfast) briefing sessions 
    - Half-day refresher courses
    Full-day training courses
    Two-day comprehensive training
    Longer-term mentoring programmes

    Because one size does not fit all, courses are designed for staff of varying skill levels - from new recruits, and the newly promoted, to refresher courses for more experienced members of staff wanting to learn new tricks.

    And if you do not see the course you want listed on the left, please do suggest a course that you would like delivered in your office. Get in touch and we will make the necessary arrangements, with you or your manager.      Click here
