Training Courses - time of change

The room is familiar - I've taught in it before - but other things are different. My first courses "here" (and here is on site, away from Melksham) was for a company who's offices host the room; there was a bustling office surrounding the room, a good (if slightly plastic) coffee machine in the canteen area. But then the recession hit and - at very short notice - a follow up course was "pulled", and I got the distinct impression that my proposed delegates may have lost a rather more than a course. I'm back in the same room again this week. The course is a different one, booked by a different company. The once bustling office is now packed up desks - signs of moving out. The coffee machine is switched off and there's no-one around. Eerie.

Ironically, some of the delegates are familiar faces - people I know from here and elsewhere in the area too - and we're having a great an full course. The best people learning new roles. Training is all about change - change to skill sets for new requirements, and this re-visiting of the same room really brings that home.
