Mandy has collaborated with a team of the highest quality trainers who are all hospitality industry specialists, offering vast “on the job” experience. This means they can offer beam members a fantastic range of MICE industry specific courses from entry level to senior leadership, with a key advantage that every trainer they work with has earned their stripes!
