The Courses

We can train you to develop the skills, knowledge and understanding of graphic recording. The courses have been designed to be relaxed and fun. We believe that we will be able to give you the skills and confidence you need to be able to take a graphic record of meetings after just two days of training.

Included in the cost of the course is a graphic facilitation starter pack. This includes a set of 12 coloured pens, masking tape and flip chart paper. You will also receive a copy of our book “Drawn to Communicate”. This book gives step by step instructions that will become an invaluable resource for you once you have finished the training.

If you are wanting to develop the skills of a team of people to:

  • become more visual in their thinking
  • communicate their ideas more easily
  • make flip-chart feedback more inspiring
  • find creative ways to share thinking with a wider audience
  • demonstrate that you have heard what is being said
  • pull out key themes from discussions and highlight insights
  • create minutes of meetings that have a visual impact

We will develop a bespoke training programme that will help you to achieve those outcomes.
