Thales Learning & Development Customer Open Day 23rd May 2014Jenny Mudd
How many Thales Learning & Development customers does it take to build a bridge?
We found out the answer to that question last Friday when we held an open day event at our learning centre.
We showcased some of our latest L&D interventions, including leadership games, videos of our experiential learning, what’s new in Microsoft Office 2013 and how project management can be applied in unexpected scenarios. It was a really fun day for us, and we’ve had lots of positive feedback already. The cupcakes didn’t go down too badly either!
