How the Festival of Functionality supports you and your learners
'Completed a little more CPD today, examining how to support our learners in developing English skills to use in the workplace, as well as achieving their English qualification. ​
Thank you for the fantastic sessions over the last two weeks. Really insightful and engaging. You shared some useful teaching techniques I can take away and put into practice.''
