Expand your skills… prove your value… and reboot your career

Practical training courses with recognised qualifications
The watchword here is “practical” – because we’re not here to drag you back into the classroom!
No doubt you’ve had your fill of school and “academic” learning, so don’t expect a load of dusty books and abstract theories. Our training is down-to-earth, with solid, tangible outcomes. Linking back to work you’ve already done, so it all means something real.
Let’s take a for-instance.
If we’re talking about change management, we’ll start with something you’ve worked on like adapting to a new policy or process. We’ll look at what went right and wrong… and find the lessons there.
In other words, we weave the theory into the world you know.
Learning is so much easier when we do it this way. Instead of drowning in some hypothetical mind swamp, you’re just taking in new ideas, through tasks and conversations.
In fact, it’s more like coaching… mentoring… than academic tuition. Like a shared project, where we work together to get you over the line.
If your ambitions lie in leadership, management or education, take a look at our courses below and see how we can help.
Then trust the process… do the work… and we’ll bring out your best.

“It’s been a fantastic journey”
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all the staff at Minerva for your outstanding support throughout my course. I genuinely enjoyed every unit! It’s hard to choose a favourite! Each one offered something valuable, and the learning experience as a whole was enriching and rewarding.
Having spent 10 years as a teacher in a previous capacity, it was a real pleasure to be a learner again. I appreciated every assignment and found the whole process both engaging and fulfilling.
Your guidance, encouragement, and timely feedback made a real difference, and I will gladly recommend Minerva to friends and colleagues.
Thank you once again for everything, it’s been a fantastic journey.
Look forward to progressing on the Cardiff MBA!

Re-entering an academic training environment was a daunting prospect after several years decades away from it!
In hindsight there really was no need whatsoever for concern, the Minerva Team are small and perfectly formed, from my initial first contact through to finishing the qualification they were always there to support me every step of the way.
