Rates

Basic

My basic day rate is €1,000 per day, or €500 for a half-day. This rate applies for courses up to 15 participants. If there will be more participants than this we can discuss the course pricing on a roughly pro-rata basis.

Reduced rates can be discussed for charities and non-profits.

Courses that are already prepared can be delivered with just the delivery time built into the price, so there is no preparation time to add.

Tailored

All my courses can be tailored to suit the specific needs of your audience.

If this approach is adopted, we will normally have an initial free half-hour discussion to outline the needs from the training or consultancy engagement, and to map out a discovery process to include learning about your needs, preparing the materials and then delivering the training or consultancy.

I will prepare a formal proposal document, and we will agree a cost for preparation and delivery broken down into day or half-day amounts. Payment is after delivery, within 30 days.

My company

My company is Zuben Ltd, and I am registered for VAT (IE9842954N) and hold full public liability cover and tax clearance.
