"We want our local economy and business community to thrive, not just survive, through this situation.
'This professional course provides a great opportunity to upskill, and will support businesses in minimising the impacts and disruptions being felt.
"We're really aware that local businesses are doing it tough at the moment, so we've proudly invested in this course to help businesses get through these changing conditions."

The crisis management training course will give businesses a plan on how to survive during this crisis.
It also explains what actions businesses should take to ensure a quick recovery once the pandemic is over.
It will be delivered by highly sought-after business educator Grant Hartley, who is passionate about helping small business owners.
