Some fantastic snaps from recent courses run by our very own David Patten👏

One of the sessions was hosted at Mondelez (yes, the home of Cadbury’s 😍). We might not have been paid in chocolate (sadly), but we did leave knowing we’d done a fantastic job ✅.

Big thanks to everyone who took part — it’s always great to see people investing in their skills, even when the temptation of a chocolate factory is just around the corner 🍬🍪.

So tell us: if you could only take ONE Cadbury product into training with you, what would it be? 🍫👇
