The BVRLA is offering a new course to help women across its membership feel confident, clear and persuasive when speaking publicly. Taking place across 20 and 21 May, the Women’s Voices in Fleet course, powered by the Association of Fleet Professionals (AFP), marks the latest development in the strategic collaboration between the two professional bodies.
Specifically designed to support women working in the fleet sector, the two-day course will enable delegates to speak with confidence & clarity in any setting. The fear of public speaking is widespread and means that knowledge, ideas or experiences are not shared, while also creating personal challenges relating to fear and anxiety. The Women’s Voices in Fleet course, powered by the AFP, equips delegates with clear guidance and a toolkit to support them on an ongoing basis.
The course extends the relationship between the BVRLA and the AFP, and follows the launch of the first joint training initiative between the two bodies last month.
Mark Pow, Head of Learning and Development at the BVRLA, said: “As a sector we are making a lot of positive strides to make it a more inclusive environment where everyone can flourish. The Women’s Voices in Fleet course is a great way to accelerate that progression. We are fortunate to have incredible individuals working across the BVRLA membership, this course will help to make sure they can all have their voices heard.”
Ronnie Gillman, training manager at the AFP, added: “We are pleased to be expanding our collaboration with the BVRLA. Together, we are making vital resources available to more individuals working in fleet, expanding those opportunities to raise knowledge and standards.
“The salary sacrifice training we recently delivered in conjunction with the BVRLA was very popular with our members. The Women’s Voices in Fleet course has the power to change lives and careers and we are delighted to be giving more industry colleagues the opportunity to develop their full potential.”
The Women’s Voices in Fleet two-day course is being held on 20 and 21 May and costs £650. More details are available on the BVRLA website.
