His training is engaging, fresh, practical, well-structured and varied, meaning high levels of participation and the achievement of strong learning outcomes. Because of this, Peter consistently achieves very high levels of satisfaction from delegates and we find they often want to book on the other programs that Peter has developed for us"

"Wow! In just 3 short months we have seen a big improvement in our results. The team leaders are now much more aware of how to get the best from their teams and it's interesting to see a big improvement in morale too. No more sloppy attitudes, very little lateness and a buzz around the floor. The latest figures show a 19% increase in lead conversion so we are delighted. Thank you very much for delivering!"

"Excerpt from letter written to the VP of Human Resources... thank you for arranging the Student Recruitment and Customer Service Call Centre workshop with Peter Howard, I certainly did appreciate the sessions and, having attended, I would encourage all of our staff to participate.
I would also encourage our administrators and faculty to observe the instructional methods Peter used as well. They contrast sharply with some I have recently observed in a very positive way. Some of our folks should observe his methods of facilitation (variety, engagement, respect, recognition of contributions, answering questions from participants, clear agenda, clear preparation, breaks, etc.).
I have been in adult education for over 30 years and I am greatly impressed with what I saw today."
