Training Services
We design and deliver bespoke, dynamic training for construction and engineering industry clients. Our workshops are grounded in law but have a practical and purposive focus.
We equip delegates with detailed knowledge and skills, which will enable them to make law work for their organisation, whatever their experience and core expertise.
We achieve this by designing round-table sessions on focussed topics and aligning the material to the organisation's business objectives and values.
We create training material that is content-rich, interactive and based on experience.
We deliver our workshops with energy and enthusiasm.
We draw on our field experience: all-parties workshops are highly recommended before a project gets underway in earnest. They provide valuable insight into the processes for contract management and administration, they are perfect for clarifying corporate expectations and they enable individuals to meet their counterparts and work together on identified areas of challenge.
We are recommended because our workshops are fun and bring functions and disciplines closer.
We mentor: we focus on equipping students and apprentices with useful knowledge and skills about the practical operation of law, so they can confidently and meaningfully contribute to the organisation from day 1.
We collaborate with global professional associations to educate and improve the skills of project managers, whether managing internal or external projects.
We listen: we love the challenge of designing a workshop just for you!

Webinar boxsets
Great introduction to JCT: being split into topics really helped us to get to grips with it

Really well delivered - well done. Every project manager should have these [NEC] sessions, beautifully concise and in plain language.

Comparing NEC, JCT & PPC
Another great course delivered by Sarah - thank you!
The round table format where discussion amongst peers is far better than the lecture format. I would advocate MBL adopting the style utilised by Sarah in all of the training.
Well-pitched with useful discussion break out sessions.
