AV facilities are available and these rooms may be booked by internal staff for training/meetings free of charge or to external organisations with fee applicable. Please telephone ext: 2671 (0151 604 7718 direct dial) for further information or to book a room.
Please note that priority for room bookings is given to training events.
Non Attendance
Please ensure the participant agrees to attendance and compliance with the Trust's Learning & Development Policy. It is important for staff to attend the whole of the session in order that they do not miss any core elements. Therefore if the participant arrives more than 10 minutes late, they will be refused entry, charged for non-attendance and will have to re-book. All staff are to sign an attendance register. Those that do not sign will be treated as not attending and a charge will be raised.
