Make the Most of the Extra Hour: Boost Your Business with Bitesize Training 

As the clocks go back and we gain that extra hour, it's the perfect opportunity to invest in personal and professional growth. One of the most effective ways to harness this hour is through bitesize training courses. Learning a new skill increases morale, boosts confidence and helps to keep your mind healthy.  

Bitesize training courses can be between 5-60 minutes, making it easy to fit learning into busy schedules, so you and your team get the skills you need when you need them.  

Identify Key Skills to Develop 

Focus on skills that align with your professional and business goals. Are you looking to boost sales through digital marketing, need to understand how to use pivot tables in excel, or want to learn softer skills like communication and leadership?  

Growth in bitesize courses 

More organisations are embracing bitesize training as a core component of their employee training programmes. Over 40% of applications made through the GM Skills Map are now for bitesize training courses showing increased demand for concise learning. If an organisation operates a hybrid working policy there is a need for flexible learning solutions, streamlining onboarding processes, compliance training, and skill development, allowing employees to learn at their own pace.
