Two minutes to spare?

Then why not have a quick look at our new video clip: in a nutshell it describes how you can equip your management teams or entire workforce with a brilliant library of learning support materials. Do we get the Oscar?

If  you’re not sure which titles will suit your needs, you can always dip in before you take the plunge!

You can view a short extract from any Management Pocketbook by clicking ‘SEE EXTRACT’ (under each title’s front cover picture) or by clicking its heading on the BOOK EXTRACTS list.
