Our staff have delivered technical and production training courses for people of all ages and experience levels, across a wide range of venues.
We have also previously set up and run a weekly “TechCrew” for secondary school students at a Performing Arts College in Manchester, training the next generation of event technicians.
We are able to tailor training to individual or specific needs, including the operation and care of existing event production equipment and infrastructure at your venue.
