Training & Capacity Building

Developing Confidence and Capability in Behavioural Science

We design and deliver behaviour change training that helps teams build practical skills and confidence. Our training is grounded in evidence, co-designed with practitioners, and structured to be relevant, accessible, and easy to apply in day-to-day work.

What We Offer

We offer a broad range of training and capacity-building services designed to strengthen behavioural science capability across different roles, teams and organisational settings.

Examples of activities include:

  • Behaviour change foundations and applied skills

  • Behavioural analysis and problem-framing

  • Understanding and responding to barriers to change

  • Applying behaviourally informed strategies in service delivery, policy, or communications

  • Strategic behavioural insights for leadership teams

  • Scenario-based skills training

  • Goal-setting and action-planning

  • Trauma-informed and inclusive practice

  • E-learning development and digital training delivery

  • Upskilling teams to use behavioural tools and frameworks effectively

Our Approach

  • We translate behavioural science into clear, practical tools and examples that can be applied immediately, whether in service delivery, policy development, product design, or strategic communications

  • Our training is developed collaboratively with the teams who will be using it — whether frontline practitioners, policy professionals, digital health teams or senior decision-makers. This ensures relevance, realism, and practical value.

  • We use scenarios, case studies and practical exercises drawn from your specific context - whether that is working with service users, designing communication strategies, or shaping policy or product decisions.

  • Training programmes are refined through feedback and can be integrated into wider evaluation or capability-building frameworks.

  • All training materials are designed to be clear, engaging and inclusive, supporting different learning preferences and professional backgrounds.

Who We Have Supported

Our training and capacity-building work spans a wide range of organisations and professional groups. Examples include:

  • Public health teams and local authorities

  • Drug and alcohol support and harm reduction services

  • Smoking cessation and behavioural counselling programmes

  • Digital health and product development teams

  • Workplace wellbeing and organisational development teams

  • Government, policy and strategic communications professionals

  • International affairs and response teams (e.g., the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office)

We apply the same evidence-based, accessible approach across diverse contexts, tailoring training to the needs, roles and environments of each organisation.
