Exciting short courses unveiled at SA¹ú¼Ê´«Ã½ Telford

Posted 21 August

A series of exciting short courses are set to run at SA¹ú¼Ê´«Ã½, Telford this autumn – with several ready for September starts.

The new courses are the latest to be announced at the University’s Telford hub which will also welcome the first undergraduates to its sute of digital degrees this September.

Operations and Business Co-ordinator Helen Walker said: “As Shropshire’s University, we’ve worked to develop these courses to answer demand from both people and businesses in the region.

“The central location of SA¹ú¼Ê´«Ã½, Telford offers means we can take full advantage of the town’s great transport links – and as we’ve expanded and developed our short course provision over the past year, we’ve been able to do so alongside some great Shropshire businesses.”

Upcoming this September are a six-week Leadership and Management course – acclaimed as ‘excellent’ by one of its initial graduates - and a short course analysing the Foundations of Project Management, both of which begin on September 16.

Also launching on September 16 will be an evening course - Eat Well, Live Better: An Introduction to Nutrition, Health and Wellbeing.

This four-week course is led by experts, including SA¹ú¼Ê´«Ã½ academics, and is for anybody interested in food and nutrition.

Meanwhile, for those who might not see their core skills as that of a salesperson – but still find themselves needing to sell –  a Sales for Non-Sales two-part programme will be launched in October and delivered by Sales Geek, specialists in sales training.

Helen added: “This is designed for those who might not be a traditional salesperson – such as designers, developers, engineers or those running their own business – and helps them identify potential customers, understand their needs – and close deals with assurance and ease.”

The programme begins on October 15.

Helen added: “As we add to our Short Courses, we want there to be something which appeals to everyone – though as you’d expect, we’re going to keep a keen focus on our region’s businesses.

“There’s definitely lots more to come – so watch this space!”
