These are testimonials from some of our previous delegates:

""Thank YOU! I attend lots of workshop/seminar events in the course of a year, and each time I think of the 'return on my investment'. I can safely say that having given up a morning to attend your workshop it was definitely time well spent! For me the challenge now is to turn what I learnt into hard cash. I wish BizVision Ltd every success and look forward to the next 'Built to Compete' event". "
Paul Wilson, Centre Manager, Fundraising & Marketing, Blythe Neighbourhood Council having attended our Developing Vision & Values for your business event.

"Thank you for an excellent day yesterday. I really was 'buzzing' with ideas by the end of the day. Both sessions really were very good for our business thinking and development. Our thanks again. "
Margaret O'Grady, Director, TCR Limited having attended our How to diversify your public sector client base event.

"Just thought I'd drop you a quick line to say how nice it was to finally meet you yesterday. Thank you for your time it was a very beneficial and useful meeting for me. I would very much like to continue the dialogue we have started and participate in some of your training courses and any appropriate netwroking opportunities that will assist in building effective partnerships in the sector. I would also very much like to access any support you may be able to give us around quality assurance systems like PQASSO and Matrix. It really was a pleasure meeting with you yesterday."
Femi Kolade, Head of Youth, Training & Facilities, Youth Culture Television (YCTV) having attended our How to identify and win public sector training contracts event.

" I have gained the confidence to put together funding tenders and am now far less daunted by statutory applications. I am currently working on a proposal for North Lanarkshire Council and drawing on the advice that Caroline gave us in her session, specifically writing clearly and being concise. In this proposal I am maintaining a strong focus on the value our organisation is able to add to existing services. I am also now receiving TED updates and have an increased awareness of the funding streams that we can access. This help and Support has been great."
Gemma-Jane Ogden, Fundraising Coordinator, Street League having attended our How to identify, bid and win public sector contracts event.

" “I had attended the January seminars arranged by Built To Compete presented by Malcolm Gallagher, ‘How to Identify and Win Public Sector Contracts’ and ‘Writing Effective Proposals’. Malcolm was very charismatic and maintained fast paced delivery. There has not been another time when I had been overwhelmed and windswept by so much relevant information from one person in one room in such a short space of time. Thank you”. "
Trevor Jones , Project Co-ordinator, Instigate having attended our How to identify, bid and win public sector proposals event.

"The benefits will be imense to my business as I implement my skills learnt with Malcolm on this course. Im going to take Malcolms expertise and energy into my company and not feel any shame in doing so! The session is music to my ears and great to have access to such a wealth of knowledge."
Lucy Martin, Manager, Cardboard Citizens having attended our The 7 skills of Leadership event.

""I wanted to write and thank you for the training ran yesterday for Built to Compete. Having just started in my role at my charity the idea of bid writing was slightly daunting but your presentation made it seem much more accessible and I am now keen to put what I’ve learnt in to practice. I gained the confidence to put together funding tenders and am now far less daunted by statutory applications. I am currently working on a proposal for North Lanarkshire Council and drawing on the advice that Caroline gave us in her session, specifically writing clearly and being concise. In this proposal I am maintaining a strong focus on the value our organisation is able to add to existing services. I am also now receiving TED updates and have an increased awareness of the funding streams that we can access. Many thanks again for a very well presented and highly engaging day of courses." "
