Do you have specific legal training needs which cannot be met by ordinary courses or seminars available in the market?
I am open to inquiries. My sessions are carefully designed to be engaging, innovative and most importantly, to equip participants with much needed know-how, as opposed to theoretical academic training.I have obtained official didactic and assessment qualifications for teaching in an international classroom in higher education. In addition, have gained extensive experience in curriculum design and structuring engaging online or in-person seminars and workshops.
