Spearheading our Pathfinder Programme are the three MasterClasses of the Discovery Suite. This is where our story starts – followed by all our growing range of Independent Career Options, Support Topics and Free Access Support Topics dovetail into this.
The Discovery Suite contains virtually all the overall material that is common to all our MasterClasses. The other MasterClasses focus on the specific topic.
Our recommendation is that all clients start with the Discovery Suite – and then decide what comes next. The only hurry is your hurry. You could spend months working your way through the Pathfinder Programme – or whatever suits you. Our vision is that Employers and Employees collaborate in the same Mission. In many ways, this is what is now new.
