Overall I have been very impressed with the.  Future Leaders Programme. It’s clear to see that a lot of time and effort goes into organising these courses and researching the material to present on training day. The in depth research into the courses is clearly evident in the material and literature provided to trainees and the line-up of guest speakers at each event. I would highly recommend Cork Chamber Skillnet for any future training needs. Laya Healthcare

Inspiring and thought-provoking programme that equips future leaders with the necessary skills for leading today. My biggest learning was that in our day-to-day experiences in the workplaces, we had so many similar challenges and experiences – knowing this was reassuring! Great set of trainers and guest lecturers. Trend Micro
