Launch of new virtual journey with Learning Cafe

Following the success of Question Time with the Managing Director, Learning Cafe are pleased to announce the launch of their new live webinar series.

They will be hosting live events regularly through the month on a variety of topics, ranging from mental health and wellbeing, to personal and professional development.

What is a Learning Cafe webinar? 

A webinar is a live, web-based video conference that uses the internet to connect the individual (or multiple individuals) hosting the webinar to an audience of viewers and listeners across the organisation. 

You don't need a camera or a microphone to take part in the sessions. This is an opportunity to take some time for yourself so make a cup of tea, sit back and learn something new.

Benefits of attending a webinar

Remember Learning Café is part of your working day!
