ATOD Training on request – training can be organised to match requests from the community sector, government or others. This is usually either:
- Adaptation of normal training, requiring minimal development time, or
- development of a new training package, which will require more development time.
This training can be delivered as a one day face-to-face or in a series of online trainings via Zoom.
