NBN is now organizing classroom hybrid training courses. So you can choose to take it online or come to our offices. This training will be taught in English.
Practically, therefore, some things are changing:
- The training days are split into 2 days
- We will be working in MS Teams. We ask that you always activate your camera to promote interactivity. Turn on your microphone only when you want to say something, to minimise background noise.
- Do you have a colleague who would also like to take the training? He/she can definitely still join!
- A sandwich lunch will be provided for participants attending the classroom training course
- Below is an overview of training times:
Part 1: 09:00 - 17:00
Part 2: 09:00 - 15:00
