Sometimes it’s useful to spend time away from your desk on a structured
course. You can learn from experts and pick up tips and ideas from colleagues
in other parts of the Company and get practical advice to help you do your job.
This page gives an overview of what’s on offer. There are more details about
each course ....

Kantar Essentials
If you’re new to Kantar Media, there are things you’ll need to learn about what our business does
and how our people operate. So we’ve got a series of courses and workshops to help you hit the
ground running. If you’ve been with Kantar for some time but would like to attend one of these,
speak with your manager in the first instance.
IT SKILLS
If the thought of being asked to create a PowerPoint presentation or decipher an excel
spreadsheet leaves you in a cold sweat, our beginner level IT training might be for you. Or if you’re
already pretty good but want to become an expert, you can take on our advanced courses.
If you’re in the middle, try intermediate.
Commercial, Business & Client Management
The heart of our business is about serving our clients and developing our commercial reach. The
programmes and workshops in this section will equip you with the tools and techniques for
becoming a trusted advisor to your clients, whether they’re internal or external.
People Management
If you’re a people manager within Kantar Media, no matter how small your team, we expect you
to take the people leadership part of your role seriously. Whether you’re new to line management
or an experienced manager, these courses will give you the opportunity to network with other
managers and build or refresh your skills.
Personal Effectiveness
Being an expert in the technical bits of your job is great, but it’s often not enough to ensure you’re
successful in your chosen career. The courses in this section are designed to help you develop
as a rounded professional with the ability to work across levels and structures.
