Our Training Formats
Group training sessions with Tangerine Ape are in-depth, hands on and highly individual. These bespoke programmes offer delegates a chance to take a look at very
specific issues, learn and practice tools and techniques to develop new skills and gain personal insight into how to make their work and personal lives more effective.
With numbers limited to a minimum of six and maximum of twelve, the subject matter gets adapted on an on-going basis throughout the programme to absolutely
suit the needs of the delegates in the training room.
Programmes are an action-packed eight hours, with people doing, not sitting. Learning with Tangerine Ape is not a spectator sport!
All of our Group Training Programmes can be tailored and accredited to suit our client’s needs.
|Seminar Session
Any number of delegates
We do appreciate that there will be times when you simply want your people to learn a new skill and learn it
quickly, but you may not be able to release them for a whole day, or you may want them to get some
polish on a skill set they already have, or you want them to get a focused look at one very specific area of
subject matter that your organisation needs to cascade in a timely fashion.
Our Seminar Sessions provide the perfect platform to get your people thinking and seeing things in new
ways and trying out some new techniques.
Seminar Sessions last for 90 minutes and we incorporate a number of different delivery formats
into each one.

|Licensed Accredited Training
Tangerine Ape work with organisations to design programmes specifically for them, then select, train and accredit the individuals designated to deliver the learning
solution.
The first step is we work with you to develop a tailored, licensed training package for the specific requirements of your organisation. The content of the
programme will be designed to reflect your values, culture and learning aims and objectives.
We then deliver a train the trainer programme to prepare your designated individuals to deliver this exact programme.
This enables us to ensure the highest possible quality of training and delivery without actually delivering the training ourselves.
Following this we will accredit those individuals we feel most able to deliver a high standard of training and assist you to pilot and roll out the training to your
workforce under our licence procedure.
As a tailored solution the logistics will vary for each case, but as a cost effective method of delivering targeted training to large groups of people, it cannot be
beaten.
From preparing you to handle a crucial presentation, to developing your management skills or
helping you with confidence and self-esteem issues, our approach is powerful, comprehensive
and quick.
The fine tuning sessions are dynamic, highly focused and subject matter specific so they
get to the heart of your issues with speed and effectiveness.

Personal Impact and
Effectiveness programmes
In testing economic conditions, organisations are increasingly looking to employees to be more effective, make a
greater contribution and make more of an impact in the way that they work.
The programmes we have designed here provide the interpersonal skills that can make a huge difference to the
way that you interact and perform at work.
These programmes also provide the invaluable life skills that are transferable to your home as well as work life.
With many organisations re-structuring and widening employee responsibilities, these programmes also help
sustain an effective flow of communication and focus your training budgets on the areas that tackle the real issues
facing your business today.

Team Development
Businesses around the world are turning to teams as the most effective way to achieve a variety of strategic and operational initiatives. However, few
teams will perform at high levels and deliver the results expected of them.
No matter how talented the individuals, teams aren't naturally or spontaneously productive. Research shows that teams need to be developed along a
specific set of guidelines to be successful.
Tangerine Ape‟s highly modular and prescriptive approach to team development is based on an understanding of today's workplace. It begins with an in-
depth team evaluation, so the development can focus on correcting the problems and furthering the strengths.
Teams then begin to develop direction, common language, trust and synergy, smoothing the way to high performance.
