With an internationally acclaimed reputation for training some the UK's most highly acclaimed professional actors, Manchester School of Theatre is delighted to announce a range of presentation and communication skills courses specifically designed to meet the needs of those employed in the community, business, government and media related sectors in the North West region and beyond. With the knowledge and expertise of a team of highly skilled and dedicated practitioners and facilitators - specialising in voice production, body language and interpretative skills - we can help maximise potential and generate impact in the following areas:

• enhanced vocal clarity and power
• variation in the tone, pitch and energy of presentations
• relaxed and effective use of body language
• active listening
• develop the ability to listen and respond with confidence and authority
• the importance of silences, pauses and non-verbal communication
• planning, preparing and presenting individual presentations
• developing leadership skills
• working under pressure
• learning to feel at ease and relaxed when communicating to large groups
• team building skills

Available on a one-to-one basis or in group workshop sessions, each of our courses is designed to ensure that every participant develops a range of new skills that will develop self-confidence, enhance professional quality and maximise individual impact.

Alongside existing courses we also offer a bespoke service in which School of Theatre facilitators will liaise with individual clients to assess particular training needs and tailor unique sessions to meet specific requirements and allocated budgets.

We can deliver bespoke courses in the relaxed and creative environment afforded by the Manchester School of Theatre or at a client's preferred location – the choice is yours!
