Fired Art Designs - Ceramics and Pottery Bespoke and on-site Training

Bespoke & On-site Training

If you are setting up your own ceramic Business, bespoke training is available at your own location 7 days a week wherever that may be for you and your staff.

Alternatively you may want a break in which case my fully equipped Ceramic studio in Pontefract, West Yorkshire is at your disposal. Once you have had your training we also include telephone support 24/7 so you have constant peace of mind should you need further help. FREE Workshops are held every three months for anyone wanting to see new products used on Seasonal projects. This will help you to make the most of all upcoming events.

On-Site Training is of great benefit to you and your staff to keep you up to date with all the latest products and equipment available. These new skills can be passed on to your customers, making them want to come back again and again.

You may want to add to an already existing business such as Soft Play and just need the know-how. Come along and learn how to make your business grow, and earn more money by creating another income stream for minimal outlay.

Often, it is not easy to get away from a busy work schedule so On-Site Training works well.
