Overview

Off the shelf (OTS)

The course is very practical and interactive. It is designed for anyone who needs to take notes or minutes at meetings and would like to build up their confidence. It covers aspects of planning, preparation, completion and sets out frameworks for minute and note takers to work within. We provide examples of templates for informal and formal meetings and practical tips to ensure minutes are a true reflection of discussions.

Do you take minutes for events such as management and team meetings, project, and external meetings? Some of your meetings could be technical and detailed, others it is more about action points and summarising discussions appropriately. You will be brought up to date with the latest thinking of meeting records and all the practical skills of minute-taking.
