Concept Training
Janet Price and Jack Holliday started Concept Training to provide independent training and advice on how to create and use multi-sensory rooms. Together, they set out to devise a practical, informative and objective programme that would help people build their confidence, understand more about what could be achieved, and take home concrete ideas and suggestions.
Today, Concept Training is one of the country's leading providers of training for anyone living and working with sensory impaired and special needs children, young people and adults, and the original concept remains - to provide practical, independent and hands-on training that delegates can put straight into practice when they get back to work.
Our courses cover the whole of the UK and provides the full spectrum of multi-sensory training, autism training and special needs training
