High calibre partners for Chambers Members

Nothing improves business like improved business skills. We take the view that our Members expect and deserve the very best skills development opportunities, which is why we have formed a unique alliance with the Business and Management Training division of Essex Business School at the University of Essex.

Our minds are set firmly on one goal - to help ensure that businesses have access to the skills necessary to compete successfully and emerge as winners.

We have a major opportunity at the heart of our region and partnering with one of the UK's most respected providers will ensure that we are better prepared to seize the moment. Aside from the wealth of topics, the value of the programme lays in the high calibre of the courses, which will be delivered by expert professionals.

The programme - Essex Business, the skills to succeed - will form part of our Events listings.
