Training and Training Needs Analysis
Brefi Group has developed a range of training approaches suitable for application in different corporate and individual environments. Our courses and development programmes are designed to achieve the maximum impact with the minimum disruption of normal work, or time away from base.
Learning is a natural, ongoing process that has structure, with both a natural and rational cycle. Natural learning processes centre around the development of unconscious competence.
Rational learning processes centre around the development of conscious competence.
Brefi Group courses guide individuals and organisations from unconscious incompetence through conscious incompetence to conscious competence and eventually to unconscious competence. With examples and exercises we provide a link between the known to the unknown. As we introduce people to new cognitive maps, so they also get reference experiences to give these maps practical meaning.

The result is that what people can do and are motivated to do, matches what the organisation needs them to do.
Career Development programmes
These intensive residential programmes are designed to introduce
individuals to the reality of their new responsibilities, requiring
greater levels of initiative, responsibility and leadership, with
less structure and direction from above. They deal with skills,
processes and identity, including values, goal setting and communication.
