Training, workshops and facilitated experiences for academic retreats, summer and winter schools, and offsite meetings
We offer practical communication workshops, science communication intensives, Impact Weeks, and custom-designed, facilitated sessions that build skills, teams, and strategies.
Science communication programmes, facilitated workshops and SciComm Impact Weeks for meetings
We create custom-designed, facilitated programmes that blend learning, reflection, and collaboration.
Depending on your objectives, these can include:
- Multi-day presentation or storytelling workshops
- Single-topic learning modules woven into a broader agenda
- Small-group coaching clinics
- Rigorous, multi-theme science-communication intensives
The SciComm Impact Week
If you’re looking for a structured 2–4 day science-communication experience culminating in a public-facing event such as a Three-Minute Thesis, Pint of Science, or Science Café, explore our signature SciComm Impact Week.
Beyond training
We’re not just trainers; we’re professional facilitators, and we know how to build structured sessions to guide conversations, and help people work through processes.
With our help, these days and weeks away from the usual setting can also include:
- Team-building and cross-disciplinary collaboration
- Strategy and vision sessions
- Foresight and innovation workshops
- Science communication and public-engagement experiences
Full of questions? We’d love to answer them!

What people say
Participants, training organisers and partner organisations have had some good things to say about us over the years.
The best workshop I've been to. So practical, with really useful results.
We’ve collected so much valuable data from this workshop and I feel so motivated to refine our strategy and engage our partners in the process. From our initial discussions, to the clear design process, to the workshop and all the reports, this has been exactly what we needed,

I was able to use a storytelling structure to make my proposal clearer
I put what I learned into practice and received feedback that my ideas were clear and easy to understand, thanks to my use of the structures Suzanne taught.

I've learned new presentation skills that I can really use in my scientific presentations
Thank you Suzanne for such a practical workshop on scientific presentation skills. Even thought we were all from different disciplines and organisations, it was all useful. I wasn’t expecting much because usually people just show slides. The discussions, the Q&A sessions, the peer reviews, and your input were a breath of fresh air.
