FAQs - Online Cultural Training Webinars

Here some quick answers to some common questions asked about our Canada training webinars.

1. Who are the webinars for?

Literally anyone who works with Canadians in any capacity. They are ideal for organisations that already do business in Canada or those looking to better understand Canada prior to venturing in.

Learners can be at any level and no prior training or qualifications are needed.

2. How many people can we have on a webinar?

How long is a piece of string? Clearly, the fewer learners, the more intimate the learning environment. However, we can accommodate large numbers too. You decide the learner numbers and we'll suggest a way to give them the best possible learning experience.

3. Can we have a recording?

Absolutely. You will receive an MP4 recording of your webinar once the training has concluded. You can then share this to train other people in your organisation. We can also not record the webinar if that’s what you prefer.

We can even go one step further and incorporate the webinar file into an eLearning course for you with additional content, quizzes and/or case studies.
