Events

In4mers Advanced Training, 19th -21st November

Advanced Trainings are weekend trainings, aimed at experienced in4mers.  Throughout the weekend we hope to help you recognise the skills that you already have and expand these further to allow you to help develop the skills in others (and be able to train at a Basic Training!). The Advanced Training weekend consists of a mixture of activities and theory which will introduce you to the concepts behind both training methods and the skills you will be training.
